Learning in Public
Learning in public changed everything for me. Here's why you should do it too.
The benefits
1. Accountability
When you share your goals, you're more likely to achieve them. It's the "sunk cost" of public commitment.
2. Feedback loop
Sharing what you learn brings feedback from others. You'll discover gaps you didn't know existed.
3. Networking
People connect with authentic learners. Your journey becomes your networking.
4. Teaching reinforces learning
Explaining what you learned cements it in your mind. The Feynman technique in action.
How to start
- Pick one thing you're learning
- Write a short post about it
- Hit publish
- Repeat
That's it. Don't overthink it.
The uncomfortable truth
You'll be wrong sometimes. You'll look back at old posts and cringe.
That's good. It means you've grown.
Learning in public isn't about being right. It's about showing up and improving.
