Communication is key!

I see a lot of very smart people who can code well but ask some to explain what they did and why and its a rabbit hole of confusion. Being able to find the words, and the way to explain something, comes out in writing since you have the structure in there to get your thoughts in order. I find that blogging has also helped me to further understand what I have learned by being able to re-communicate it. It's also a good record of issues I dealt with and how I resolved them, at times its been useful to look back a few years later when encountering a similar issue. So not only helping others but my future self!
