Stop reserving space for potential instead of presence.
Real momentum comes when you own your vision.
When you step into a new chapter, it's natural to want everyone to come along for the ride. But real momentum comes when you own your vision and you lean into the community that supports it the most.
The hard truth is you have to stop reserving seats for those who do not genuinely accept your invitation. In design, it's no different than endlessly ideating on what a space could be. Go with the direction that's staring you in the face.
