A few days ago I found myself with thoughts in my head which where becoming more painful as time went by. I was generating so many ideas that I could not even track them all, let alone write them down before I had forgotten them. It bothered me that I was forgetting some of these almost instantly. Some of those I had forgotten, I had believed were very good (really bad concepts in reality).
Why was I worried about writing down ideas (good or bad)?
I had even perfected idea note writing to multiple scenarios. I kept a piece of paper ready in my pocket, I had my mobile notes @evernote, and even had photos of random pieces of paper I used to write down anything I liked to do -- after all, those ideas might just change the world... . I couldn't stop!
I started reading books on how to stop this idea frenzy and start creating.
- Why didn't I execute any of the ideas I had collected over the years?
- Was it because of previous failure?
- Am I afraid to be successful?
- Am I afraid of having too much success? Is there such thing?
