This is exactly what I battle but I call it “paralysis by analysis” – laying the best laid plans, while procrastinating on execution. Grrr..

But the expectation of every idea being implemented perfectly can lead to inaction. I’m coming around to the idea of just doing and seeing how things turn out. I like the idea [...]

By that, I mean that you are writing about
ideas/perspectives that have been slowly building in my mind over the past year.
This post nails my most formidable enemy on the head. During the past 1 1/2
years, I have lurked around a number of very prominent websites (like this one)
- trying to feel out the Web 2.0 scene (and by “Web 2.0″ I mean the openness,
collaboration, and values mentioned
here
in Tara’s post ). My journey has been incredible – sometimes to the point
where I can’t seem to contain my excitement or ideas. I knew I had to channel
this energy, but how? The most logical choice would be to start a blog of my
own, but I couldn’t. Why? Fear of my imperfections. I was afraid of things like
not sounding smart enough, sounding like an “idiot” when I propose an
ill-conceived idea and most importantly that it would be there for the world to
see! I know this fear is shared by many, but mine was keeping me from
contributing to a WONDERFUL community, leaving me with an incredible amount of
discontent – not healthy!

Today is a milestone! While I was reading this post, I was thinking about
another post that you wrote recently about
thinking
with a web mind, and it hit me! Single-handily, all of these great bloggers
ARE imperfect – just like me. But collectively, “the network of people and their
ideas” are the true genius. By writing this comment, I am striving to become
more of an imperfectionist and write what I feel – without fear! While for many
of you this may have been evident – for me, it was a powerful realization. Thank
you Anne.
