Creation
Many people wait for the final step of creation to make something public but you can start much earlier. This way you can practice continuous creativity to learn at each step of the creative process.

- Blind spots: give an opportunity to your audience to suggest resources you may have missed
- Personal knowledge: collate and comment on resources to help your future self
