Step 3. Begin to write…
Some students think that they should not begin to write untilthey have read absolutely on the topic.
It is a misconception because there will always be more
articles and books to read and more ideas to consider.
So, if you keep waiting, you will never begin.
Get started early. Ideas build on ideas, and the process
of writing will enable you to discover new ones.
