This is probably true in general, to be honest. However, it’s an explanation for why people don’t do anything, and I’m not sure this differentially leads to delaying contact with reality more than say, delaying writing up your ideas in a Google doc.
Some more strategies I like for touching reality faster
I like the “explain your ideas to other people” point, it seems like an important caveat/improvement to the “have good collaborators” strategy I describe above. I also think the meta strategy point of building a good workflow is super important!

Importantly, the bar for “good person to explain ideas to” is much lower than the bar for “is a good collaborator”. Finding good collaborators is hard!
Thanks!
