Maintaining is not enough

Organ Improvisation in A

When you create something, it's tempting to keep polishing it, keep making it to work better, keep eliminating the risk. And so we postpone sharing our invention with the world, postpone the interaction which comes from saying "this is what I'm making; what do you think?", postpone the possibility of someone responding with "I don't like it; therefore I don't like you."

And yet we admire people who come up with weird ideas and follow through with them, we admire people who are so much higher of criticism, we admire people who risk appearing stupid for the benefit of the idea.

Keeping it to ourselves is not enough. We have to be open for the vulnerability of sharing it with the world.
