Are you this good going from abstract to practical? I know I am not. For me the it's a revelation that _fear itself_ actually is _fear of making something lame_

Are you this good going from abstract to practical? I know I am not. For me the it's a revelation that _fear itself_ actually is _fear of making something lame_. So, I don't really see the value of expressing this "concisely" because if will never arrive from A to B, if A is abstract pattern. Though once you have shown me that A is equivalent to B (the practical), I do agree, A is equivalent to B. But, unless you show me B upfront, just concisely stating A to me is of no value: I can not make the connection from Abstract to Practical. Only from practical (something lame) to maybe abstract (fear itself).
This is also why I don't really buy in to the whole "conciseness" thing - I prefer things spelled out. I suspect many others do too.
- jzer0cool 6y agoThere are many kinds of fear. Sure, lameness could be one. But I think it is rooted in fear of something else. Fear of failure. Fear of judgement. Fear of mistakes. ... I would argue lameness (as those listed here above) are still abstract. Are you saying you cannot move towards defining and understanding what is causing the fear when you create something lame?
