Building While The World Watches
Starting in private is one thing. But building in public, that’s where it gets real scary.
It’s one thing to dream alone. It’s another to post that first idea, send that first email, tell people what you are working on. The moment you do, the doubts get louder. What if they don’t get it. What if it’s not ready. What if I’m not ready.
When I started writing a book, I kept it quiet. I was afraid of looking silly. Afraid of calling myself a writer before the work was done.
So one day I did the scariest thing. I told a friend. Then I wrote a short post. That one move gave me something. Not approval. Not applause. Just a feeling. And that was enough for me to keep going.
Please let the world see you try. Let them see you build. That’s where my story begins to matter and so will yours.
