Many years ago, I heard some creative say something about how the reward we get from sharing an idea stimulates the emotions/thoughts/feelings as if you actually shared the finished thing; so we are compelled to do so, but in doing so it deflates the source motivation.

This is a much more thoughtful & well-written & beautiful expression of how we act on these instincts for validation & gratification. ✨

Wow yes this speaks to me on so many levels. I had to step off social media for this exact reason, it is not my time to be sharing every single move I make...but rather build in the shadows until I am ready to come into the light. Thank you gabi 💙 this is a good one

Let out a sigh of relief after reading this. To take action without feeling the need to explain yourself, that’s what it’s all about. Charming read, as always

somehow this is precisely what I wanted to hear, that's you. "it asks for your hands, not your tongue".

Thank you!

I’ve gave it a lot of thought on sharing plans but never came up with anything. I guess there’s things we only discover through the collective mind. Thanks for sharing.

I did the opposite of this recently because I got excited and, like you mentioned, thought sharing would hold me accountable. But sharing did nothing but dissolve the whimsy of the process
