Your Brilliant Ideas Are Dying in the Someday File
What if your greatest contribution to the world is trapped inside you right now, suffocating under layers of busywork and "I'll get to it when I have time"? We're drowning in ideas yet starving for finished work. That novel outline gathering dust, the business plan you've been "almost ready" to launch for two years, the community project that could change lives-they're all stuck in what's called the Someday Trap. This isn't about lacking motivation or discipline. It's about living with a toxic buildup of unexpressed creativity-creative constipation, if you will. Just like its physical counterpart, this condition makes us irritable and resentful, especially toward people who are actually doing their meaningful work. Our emotional range flattens. The highs feel less high, the lows dig deeper. That creative energy doesn't just disappear-it finds destructive outlets through impulse purchases, late-night refrigerator raids, or blowing up perfectly good lives in spectacular midlife crises. Here's the liberating truth: your best work doesn't have to be your job. It's whatever makes you come alive, serves both you and others, and requires you to show up despite uncertainty. Maybe it's raising thoughtful children, organizing your neighborhood, or mastering sourdough bread. The key is recognizing that we live in a project-driven world where everything changes every few years anyway. Projects become mirrors reflecting who we are and bridges to who we're becoming.
