My Achilles' heel as a creator is my obsession to hype up my plans and work that are not yet started, but I'm heavily excited about. Then, a decade later, I have nothing to show for it. I become overcome with shame over not following through, or I get so overwhelmed with living up to my promotion.
So no hype. Just a vague collection of things I'd like to do. Maybe I'll even get them done if I let the pressure ease.
