Thank you for taking the time to type so comprehensively n share so generously about your process. I think I gathered certain insights that I cannot glean from books:
  1. It’s generous of you to give away ideas. I think you need to acquire a certain level of confidence before you can do that. To dispel the fear that you will run out of ideas if you share so openly with others. But now I see it as a wise thing to do. The flow of ideas is like a tap. 🚰 You need to ensure that you don’t unwittingly stop the flow by hoarding ideas.
  2. Some ideas take time to germinate. I’m rather impressed by how you stayed patient and stuck with that idea for a year. I would probably have moved on to something else if I were you. You remind me that it’s not the end of the world if I cannot expand on an idea now. I need not get flustered. With time comes experience - and there will come a time in which the half-baked idea gets stirred by Life towards completion.
Thanks!
Your welcome!
I am actually working on a Thriller post for a few weeks now around some lessons I’ve learned this past year that I am looking to share. As a founder the sharing of these ideas can save a lot of us time and money. My friend Andre just wrote an amazing post around lessons he learned. It’s so good, def check out!

💯 my biggest problem is sometimes my confidence comes off as arrogance. Still working on this.
I honestly think now it’s a whole another level of talent that can remain humble while also displaying this level of confidence. My friend @supertestnet is this way.

🎯 things really start taking off for you when you approach your creative endeavors this way.

Yes low-time preference building is the way. When I was young this was not the case.

Thanks for sharing. I devoured the 40 slides. What struck me most was how one can forgo work-life balance when he is truly obsessed about something. Guess I need to find my obsession haha

Ya Andre is a real one have learned a ton from that man. Lately I am learning just to weave it in your life and also valuing sleep and at least one day off a week to reset. But ya still learning this as well.
