How hard is it to start a blog?

Hello there! If you are a developer like me and you find yourself asking this same question, then I must tell you that it isn’t as hard as it seems.

In the last few weeks, I have been anticipating writing my first blog as a developer and I have had lots of reasons to procrastinate. The most challenging part of actually starting a blog is starting.

Some of the questions that held me down are:

  • What am I supposed to blog about?
  • How often will I need to write articles?
  • Why do I even need a blog?
  • I spend most of my time coding, where’s the time to write articles?

The list could go on and on, but then I really did not look at the bright side. I took my time to look at most of my mentors and I realize that you could be really good at what you do, but if you do not put it out there, then you will be the only one who really know’s your value.

It all starts with one word at a time and before you know it, you are on your way to greatness.

Stop the procrastination and start writing today. A short article is good enough to begin with or maybe just an introduction of yourself with a few pictures.

In summary, the only way to overcome your fear will be to face it. Start writing today.
