 Seems difficult because is new. Everything that is new for us tends to be difficult.
+So, let's start with a plan: keep it short, keep it simple, keep it going. It means that the plan is to constantly improve
+vim knowledge by getting new tips, using it a lot and then master it.
+Will try to follow that with this Vim series.
+
+# Advices
+
+Getting started with Vim involves some good advices:
+
+- Avoid frustration, by not using it when you need speed, keep in mind that you won't get same efficiency as your regular editor for a while. It's similar to learning a new language or framework and if you keep expectations high it will be frustrating.
+- No mouse allowed, neither arrow keys for navigation on Normal mode.

-Visual: it is basically selecting text

 When you are not on Normal mode, you can press Esc to switch back to it.
 And if you want to exit vim, on Normal mode, you can use :q.
 Now that you know how to exit vim, this article is done, see you next time.
 Just kidding, lol.

+## Commands
 
-- Avoid frustration, by not using it when you need speed, keep in mind that you won't get same efficiency as your regular editor
-for a while. It's similar to learning a new language or framework and if you keep expectations high it will be frustrating.
-- No mouse allowed, neither arrow keys for navigation on Normal mode.
+When inside the Normal mode, you can also modify the content by using some commands, all you have to do is navigate into the
+content you want to change(we'll talk about navigation in another article from this series).
+A very basic but useful example is how to edit code inside quotes or parenthesis.
+Let's say we have something like this string:
+
+```'VisualCode is awesome !'```
+
+But we want to edit the text inside the quotes, so we perform a command: `Ci'`
+That would result into: `''` and then you can type whatever you want: `'Vim is awesome !'`.
+Explaining that command:
+
+* C: for Change
+* i: for inside
+* ': for whatever is enclosing the content you want to modify
+
+You could use D instead of C, the difference is that D just deletes and keep you at the Normal mode when C does exactly
+the same thing, but gets you into the Insert mode, so you can write something right away.
+
+Now let's say you want to duplicate a line:
+`'Vim is awesome !'`
+Then you just type(with cursor at any point of the line): `YP`
+That would result into:
+
+`
+'Vim is awesome !'
+'Vim is awesome !'

+Explaining the command:
