I'm now writing something about my feeling of posting article on DEV. I have read many of this before, it inspired me to share about my feelings to us.
As a beginner, I know that sometimes I don't have many ideas to write about. When I read others word, I can always learn a lot. They tell you the knowledge of programming, but after reading, it is also difficult for me to write something.
I just shared one of my projects, it's a simple algorithm. I knew that I don't have many projects to share, maybe sharing some of my feeling, but most of the time I don't know how to write it in words. Some of the feeling can't tell others through words, maybe many of us feel the same, just lack of communication.
I just want to write perfect articles, for me, and for everyone. I have been programing for some years, but as a student, I don't have many times to do this. Although I have continue doing this for about 6 years, I'm just a beginner.
Programming is not strange to me, but my first article was written in last month. It was my first time to write about my work. I just want to record myself. Although it hasn't been shown to many of others, it is also important to me. It my first post, the first time I try to write something.
I'm not perfect in writing articles, but what I need to do is, thinking more, and writing more. Writing needs time and effort, when I write this, I need to think about how to organize my word, how to swich the programming language to natural language. Not just copying and pasting the code, nobody likes it.
I want to talk more, but I'm just lack communication. I want to tell many things. I want to talk about my feeling of programing, even how I started writing my first "hello world". It's a long story, just to share it in the future.

You don't have to be perfect to allow yourself to express what you feel. Improvements will come with time for sure. What you write has a lot of value, even if it is not perfect, it doesn't have to be.
Don't aim for perfection, think about your article and express it the best you can. Enjoy writing it, just like enjoying a piece of artwork. And praise yourself for your effort, for your struggle, even for the small ones, because that's growing!
Just keep doing this! You got this! I am looking forward to read your next posts!
You said it perfectly!👏👏👏
Thanks a lot for your encouragement!
Hey, I'm glad you found the courage to write.🥰 Think of this as a beginning, you did it in spite of that inner voice that holds you back, the one that doesn’t let you write or organize your thoughts.
You said at the beginning you’re writing “something about my feeling.” I believe that, somewhere deep down, there might be a fear of having your post judged. But if that’s the case, you don’t need to worry! There are many people who feel exactly like you do but are afraid to go public, and those people are waiting for posts like yours to give them courage.🥰
Those who judge, will be judged. Those who appreciate, will leave a comment or a like. Post for yourself, to see your own journey, to prove to yourself that you kept going. You’ve already proven it by doing this for 6 years.👏👏👏
Try keeping a personal journal. Write for yourself. Pour out your thoughts, your fears, everything you feel. Ask yourself questions, and you’ll see how much it helps you organize your words. Keep doing what you’re doing! You’re on the right path. 👏 Let’s see the next post! 🥰
Thanks a lot! I'll enjoy my own journey.
