Episode 4 - Leave a log instead of creating a piece

How to log instead of creating content. Let's solve the struggles faced by developers in content creation and share content writing tips they know.

  • The most natural way for developers to consume content

For a while,

I wanted to create content

but kept avoiding it.

It wasn't because I didn't have time.

It wasn't because I didn't have ideas.

It was because of the pressure to finish.

When I started writing,

I heard a voice in my head.

"It's not ready yet."

"It's not good enough to release like this."

"Let's polish it a little more."

And as I kept polishing,

suddenly the writing never saw the light of day.


Developers already know a different way

It's strange.

Developers are not familiar with this approach.

  • They commit even if the code isn't perfect
  • They deploy even if there are bugs
  • They operate under the assumption that they can fix it later

We know.

There's hardly a v1.0.

But especially when it comes to content,

developers were acting more like non-developers.

Why is that?


It's because they misunderstood content as 'art'

Art comes with conditions.

  • It must be complete
  • It must not be open to misinterpretation
  • It must not be refuted

That's why it's burdensome.

That's why it's heavy.

But content

doesn't need to be like that.

Especially

for someone like you.

To you, content is

not an opinion but a record of the state.


It's okay for logs to be wrong

In logs,

there is no right answer.

Only these remain.

  • When
  • What
  • Why you did it

And the reason

can change later.

It's okay if it changes.

Logs are not wrong,

they are updated.

The moment this perspective sets in,

content becomes not a heavy burden but

part of the job.


Questions that make writing easier

When trying to create a piece of art,

questions are difficult.

"Is this right?"

"Is this enough?"

"Will it help others?"

When trying to leave a log,

the questions change.

  • What choices did I make today?
  • Why did those choices bother me?
  • What is inconvenient from the current perspective?

These questions

are ones you already ask yourself every day.

You just haven't written them down.


Content is deployable thoughts

Thoughts,

when they stay in your head,

keep drifting.

But the moment you write them down,

they take shape.

Not because they're perfect,

but because they've been deployed.

And the deployed thoughts

can come back later

and say,

"Oh, I used to think like that."

This is not embarrassing.

It's growth.


The change that comes from starting to leave logs

One interesting change occurs.

When you start writing content,

your thinking becomes clearer.

As you organize your thoughts to write,

the reasons for your choices become clear.

And that process

can help someone.

Because

they are also grappling with the same concerns.


In conclusion

You

are not someone who creates art.

You already know too much

and feel too much responsibility.

What you need

is not a more impressive expression,

but a structured way to record.

Content is

not a boast but

an update log.

When you think like that,

content no longer

holds you back.
