In the article What Do You Already Know?, you listed things you already know.
Now we take the next step:
Who actually needs this?
Knowledge becomes valuable when it helps someone solve a problem.
Don’t try to be perfect here. Just think about real people.
THE EXERCISE

- What do they find confusing or difficult? (What slows them down or makes things harder than it should be?)
- What mistakes do they usually make? (What do they get wrong, skip, or misunderstand?)
- What would help them quickly? (What small thing could make this easier right away?)
You don’t need a big solution. Even a small improvement can be valuable.
