When To Share Your Ideas

from 10,000 NOs · host Matthew Del Negro

"I try and do my work behind closed doors. I think I used to show my work, but now I try and do my work behind closed doors. And then be like, 'Yeahhh! I'm just free and easy.' You know what I mean? And let them think you got lucky. Whereas I used to want to be like, 'Nooo, I worked so hard!" Now I'm like, let 'em think I just f***ing lucked out."Today’s episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how it's important to protect your ideas before sharing them too quickly with people. Other people aren't always going to see what you see. If you share your idea too quickly a lot of people are going to shoot it down. Not because they don't want you to succeed, but they often believe they are protecting you. It's well intentioned, but not the best for allowing your ideas, stories, etc to blossom. Protect your creativity before it's ready to share with the world.10,000 NOs is here to inspire you and help you realize you are not alone if you’re battling to overcome rejection in your career or life.So, if you’re an actor, writer or filmmaker and you like what you hear in the snippets from our Working Actors Community zooms enough to want to be a part of it, CLICK HERE.Remember, “failure” is just opportunity in disguise, and you can flip the script to make your setbacks serve you.SHOW LINKS:10,000 NOs: THE BOOKSUBSCRIBE TO OUR (WEEKLY) NEWSLETTERFOLLOW MATT ON SOCIALFIND OUT HOW YOU CAN JOIN THE WORKING ACTORS COMMUNITY

Anti-Aging Hacks was born out of a quest to slow down Faraz Khan's parents aging so he could spend more quality time with them. It then evolved to learning about tactics he could apply to slow down his own aging and live a long healthy life.Faraz Khan interviews the top health, anti-aging, longevity, and biohacking experts in the world to bring you the tips and tricks you need to easily look and feel your best, upgrade your energy and focus, boost your confidence, and live a long and healthy life.Faraz tries all these techniques on himself so he can tell you stories of personal experiences that can help you make your own decisions regarding your health and longevity. Just 10 years ago, it was impossible to slow down aging. Now it's not only possible for cheap, but we are close to revers Explicit Running In Slow Motion with Sidney & Tamra Smith You Hear Good Things podcast network Comedian Sidney Smith and his wife Tamra — a sharp-witted educator with a soft spot for flowers — team up to navigate life, goals, and culture at their own hilarious, at times, in-depth pace. They call it “running in slow motion,” and that pretty much sums up the vibe. This isn’t a marriage podcast (their union ranks a generous 5 out of 10, after all), but it is a refreshingly honest, smart, and funny take on relationships, ambition, and everyday chaos. From real talk to pop culture and unexpected interviews, it’s a joyride of relatable moments and laugh-out-loud observations.
