@maisonrickie: Today, let’s talk about why it’s so difficult to be seen “trying” in public. No one wants to suck at something but it’s a lot deeper than just that. What is going on internally and externally that makes being seen trying in public such a barrier? Another fascinating topic here and if you enjoyed, there’s lots more to come on just this topic alone so keep an eye out and contribute to the discussion in the comments! Let’s keep exploring these ideas.
I remember studying the notion of sprezzatura in Italian Renaissance era (yes, 16th century) etiquette books, 25 years ago in university. I never forgot it, but thought it would be one of those fabulous, but rare and ignored bits of knowledge I’d never again hear about. I’m so glad people are made aware of it. Thank you sm!!

Quite similar to the fear of being perceived.

so if i see a "day 1" video, and i don't find it cringey, is it because i relate and recognise that we're in the same social reaching class? or perhaps it's empathy.

So how do we counteract this? Because I want people to try. I want them to reach, to want more or new or different things. I want them to try, I want them to fail, I want them to try again. I want them to try in new ways, to embrace setbacks, to keep inventing and reinventing, themselves, the world around them, their place in the world. How do we as a society lower the social burden of trying? How do we as individuals make it less socially expensive to try?

Great video one of the things I find very cringe is when people post big news coming why don’t you just wait and until you have the big news?

Not all creators are created equal. Some have an intrinsic quality or skill that is naturally embraced by others. Others create content for themselves, like a social media scrapbook that may or may not be embraced by others. Both can be cool or cringe. Both can go viral (but only one of them cares if they don’t).

You never looked like you were trying… Your content felt inevitable, like I was already following or something. The way you did it needs to be commended

I publicly display my efforts as a beginner 3d animator because deep down I feel like I will either achieve greatness or inspire other beginner animators to keep trying, even i become beyond cringe
