I’m not a talker, I’m terribly shy in unexpected social situations.
However, one thing that has helped me a lot is writing. I try journaling and writing my thoughts every day. I also see how my understanding of topics grows when I write at the end of processes — sort of like a longer git commit stored somewhere else, explaining my line of thought and why I decided to do things this way, and pointing out anything learned through the process. I personally write everything in the same journal — I use the app Diarly for Mac.
Writing is a great way of organizing and formulating your thoughts, letting them out of your system. Then, when you need to talk about it, it’s easier to remember, if you have already put it into (written) words once!

Absolutely right 👏🏽. This is why I started blogging.
Writing helps me make my thoughts clearer and coherent. Taking those thoughts and speaking them out is easer then.
