Why We Only Share Our Struggles After We Succeed | Random Thoughts
from Notes with Nomfundo
In this Random Thoughts episode, I discuss something many of you experience but rarely talk about: being embarrassed to be seen trying.We live in a world that celebrates success stories, but often ignores the messy, uncertain process that comes before them. People encourage us to disappear, fix our lives, build our businesses, achieve our goals—and only come back once we've "made it."But what about the uncomfortable middle? The stage where you're learning, struggling, experimenting, and putting yourself out there without knowing how things will turn out?This conversation started when I realized that I'm comfortable promoting my business on LinkedIn and even TikTok, yet I still feel nervous sharing it in my local community WhatsApp group. Not because what I'm doing is unusual, but because the people around me can see me trying in real time.Why does being witnessed during the process feel so vulnerable?Join me as I unpack the fear of being seen before success, the pressure to hide our efforts, and why maybe there's nothing embarrassing about trying at all.#RandomThoughts #PersonalGrowth #Entrepreneurship #Mindset #SelfDevelopment #BusinessJourney #FearOfFailure #GrowthJourney
