One rule for writing is to write what you know. You might become influenced or tempted to write about topic that is trending. If You want to be an article writer, writing about what you know can be a very good starting point in putting down ideas.
Your Activities
Sharing your own knowledge about things you do everyday can be a promising start and it will give you more opportunity in your writing. You can start with what you do when you get up first in the morning. Do You do some household chores, or do you start your day with some exercise, or go straight to the kitchen to make your breakfast?
When You start writing, even the smallest task you do can become a "how-to-do" article. So if you start your day with some exercise, everyone wants to know how to get physically fit, being in a better shape, so once you put that into writing, your morning routines, it could become inspirational to your readers.
Others might find interest in you're article on food about how to make the best noodles ( as an example ).
Try and identify what you do best, what you are particularly good at, and put it out there into writing. If You are a fashion designer, you can write about anything from the look of the dress, to it's design or style, to the type of quality fabrics used.
Your specialty doesn't really matter, whether you are a gamer or a workman, people are out there that want to know what you do and also what you know. Why don't you give it a shot and put them down in writing.
Your creativity
Another way in writing about things you know is using you're creativity.
For example, you are good at cooking delicious meals and there's this recipe you are willing to share, but you don't have the time in making your own cookbook. Do You know you can write an article about it? With The right recipes, you could start that cookbook.
Steemit allows you to write anything you wish to write. You could start a cooking blog that would focus on your articles and recipes. A very good example here on steemit is @gringalicious. You can draw inspiration from her.
It's also applicable to any unique thing a person does. Similar to things you do everyday, your activities, or your creativity can cover a large variety of topics.
If You look around, study the environs and see things the way others see them you can turn anything into an article.
Your Knowledge
Writing about things you know on a particular subject gives writers that freedom to tell how it makes you feel, its meaning to you, and what effect is having on your life, positively or negatively.
There's a reason the " write what you know " rule has long been existing. It actually works.
So, whenever you feel discouraged or look frustrated when writing, just take a look around your surroundings and be inspired. You might be surprise of the things you actually know.
This is so true. This is the only way you won't end up dead halfway in your writing career, you will always have something to share.
