You have an obligation to share your ideas (here's why)

If you don't share your ideas, you're doing the world a disservice. 🤔

There are people who want to learn from you. Consider that if you haven't posted your ideas here lately.

The idea of sharing ideas online is still one that's kind of new, oddly enough. Many people are hesitant to do it - perhaps you're one of them. It may be because many people are afraid of being accused of self-promotion.

There are two ways to classify the sharing of information I've learned recently:

1. Self-promotion

2. Idea promotion

Self-promotion can be:

narcissistic
bragging

For many, they don't want to be in this category.

Idea promotion is an act of generosity and creating a gift for others, hoping they receive it. I think this is a much better way of conceptualizing what ideas we post about, talk about, and share - and for what reason.

Adam Grant says "we have a responsibility not to deprive the people around us from learning."

I believe that.

❓So, here's a question for you: Where do you think your hidden potential lies?

Let me know below. 👇

And then go idea promote that to someone about it this weekend.
