Wow- I should listen to the whole thing before posting, as questions keep coming up. A trouble spot for me isn’t that someone may expect me to deliver. I often want to- even though I don’t have the time or bandwidth. The problem is usually that others either 1. fail to grasp what is good about the idea, or 2. may misinterpret the glut of ideas as an indication that I think I know it all and have the best ideas. Struggles with pride can feed into that as well, so I have to constantly remind myself that no one likes a self-important jerk, Also, as an artist, I do sometimes fight with feelings of rejection when others don’t appreciate ideas I believe are solid. It may have to do with the way my gifting often makes me feel like the misunderstood loner on the team. I have to take steps to keep my relationships strong or I can disappear into my project and my ongoing fight with perfectionism.
Thank you so much for this. Especially the talent mindfulness. I hatched one super important solution for my current challenges right now. Lots of love from Manila, Philippines
Why do you assume that people with high ideation may not understand which of their ideas are best? Why are most ideators unable recognize a good idea immediately? Ideation is in my top spot, but I feel like I am able to sort things as I go. I stop myself from saying some things out loud, but probably because the idea isn’t fully formed and cannot be expressed easily. But I don’t throw out ideas that contradict my values or belief system unless I am clearly joking. It must be my gifting mix that gives me a different experience than what the both of you have been describing. 1. Ideation 2. Connectedness 3. Communication 4. Adaptability 5. Intellection Does that explain anything? 🤔

Thankyou.
The mindfulness is extremely helpful. Especially for those of us with Ideator
