Some of the people that I look up to the most have done a significant amount of public writing. Ironically, this is a main driver in why I look up to them. I've decided to do a small amount of informal public writing in order to get better at writing and share a few things I've learned or experiences I've had. Most (if not all) of my ideas are things that I've gotten from someone else, or an idea from one discipline that I've applied to another. I don't believe I have a single original idea. I'll do my best to attribute where I recall or can find my source, but often I don't know where an idea came from. It could be a book I read years ago, a conversation with a friend or an old YouTube video. Apologies in advance for the haphazard structure and myriad of ideas. I hope it's useful to someone.
