Prompt: Write a letter to the part of you that clings to outcomes.

I often seek approval or reassurance before doing anything. ChatGPT only feeds this compulsion. I even asked it why I do.

I have this vision of this blog being a place where I just dump my thoughts, work through them, and let them rest. This feels unrealistic because things are no longer allowed to just exist. People are no longer able to discover themselves outwardly because of the persistence of our digital lives. We retreat into ourselves in search of the person we want to show the world and then emerge. Hard launch.

There’s an underlying fear of something unknown that I can’t shake. I don’t feel prepared enough to take on whatever might come my way.
