Takeaways

Moving fast and iterating is key to making progress and learning from mistakes.

Putting things out there and getting feedback is crucial for improvement.

Finding a niche involves writing about something you enjoy and that others find useful.

Metrics such as impressions, click-throughs, likes, and shares can help determine what content resonates with the audience.

Writing can be pursued alongside a medical career, and dreams can change and evolve over time.
