Stories From Women Who Walk

60 Seconds for Tips on Thursday: Choosing to Remain Silent While Incubating Ideas.

Episode Summary

Unless we are ready to share, spending time alone with our ideas will give them permission to grow and solidify in confidence until the time we are ready to ask another: What do you think?

Episode Notes

Hello to you listening in Tulsa, Oklahoma!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds, your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that.

Perhaps like you some days I turn away from others to remain private, to keep my ideas to myself.

Some days I choose to remain silent to allow my ideas to roam and stretch in whatever direction they’ll go to flourish.

Some days I do not want humans influencing me, my ideas, my thoughts; or, even co-opting them before I am confident about what to share and how and with whom.

What’s underlying this deliberate, intentional posture? I do not want to defer to you, your ideas, your perspective, your input. I choose to remain silent and wait while my growth take place.

Practical Tip: Spending time alone with our ideas will give them permission to grow and solidify in confidence until we are ready to ask another: What do you think?

Until then it’s okay to keep our ideas close to our heart.
