How did you overcome building in public?

Question

As someone who hasn't been the most social person on social media. I find it hard to post as much as I should on social media about what I'm building. I'm wondering if anyone experienced the same and overcame the feeling?

I'm definitely getting better at it but it still doesn't feel super natural months in.

TL;DR it's a long journey,

I tried different structured approaches, like content planning, 2/week schedule, etc without much success.

To be honest, got progress when i started writing at least 5/week and stopped obsessing too much about making every post perfect on editing.

Few practical things that I use:

1. Notes in apple. Just put post ideas as a to-do list. Only titles, nothing fancy.
2. Drop "dirty" draft with speech-to-text in 2-3 min. Edit later
3. Started making posts with "Talking Head" video. Same thing — talk now edit later

All these make things a tiny bit easier

@kostyabolsh Very practical advice, thanks Kostya. Will definitely be sticking with the "dirty" draft approach with speech-to-text and apple notes.
