I found myself thinking about the phrase “holding ourselves in draft mode.” What struck me is that waiting can sometimes feel responsible, even wise, which makes it difficult to recognize when it has quietly become a form of avoidance. The threshold can feel very real even when it keeps moving.
Thank you for sharing! Exactly, I think the lines between waiting and avoidance are very blurred, and it’s important to see that the wait is actually holding you back.
I think that's what makes it so difficult to recognize. Waiting often feels productive because it can be framed as preparation, reflection, or patience. By the time we realize the threshold keeps moving, we may have spent a long time convincing ourselves we're almost ready. Thank you for the thoughtful reply.
“The doing creates the feeling” - so right! I have been thinking about that pressure of being ready, fully prepared, perfect for the task we envision and how it’s all a lie. The next article I’m writing will be about that in regard to creativity and making art. We hold on for too long with what really matters.
