Bringing others peoples ideas to life

Yours not mine but why?

Honestly, ever since I can remember, I’ve been much more successful in helping other people bring their ideas and stories to life instead of mine.

Not sure if it is some sort of mental block, fear or creative constipation I have.

Hmm… maybe I do another post or write-up about:

Feeling stuck and irregular?

Ideas not flowing like they should?

Introducing: The Creative Suppository

Guaranteed to unstop your creative constipation

Simply …. (I’ll leave it at that)

Anyways, since high school for example, I can remember reading someones paper or poem and being able to give a ton of constructive feedback on it. However, when it came to my work, my brain would just shut off.

Do I feel detached from other peoples work and the end result, is that why I can deliver a lot of input with little to no inhibition? If it doesn’t do well, it’s not like it was my project anyways? Maybe.

Is it because I am such a perfectionist and critic of my own work that I get blocked up and stuck because my expectations are so unrealistic that I couldn’t possibly materialize what it is I expect myself to be capable of producing. Likely.

In any case, I do know that I LOVE seeing people stroke their creative genius and bring ideas they are passionate about to life.

If introverts recharge emotionally while being alone and extroverts recharge with people, I recharge when I see people do work that matters to them and bring their passions to life.

Can you relate?

Thank you.
