When I am creating and busy, I want to share my work and my life with the people in my social circle

I made my first Instagram post on the 18th of January, 2013. Proud of the progress the Russian Giant Sunflowers that I had planted in my backyard were making, I snapped a photo, slapped a filter on it, and posting it out into the internet. It got zero comments and zero likes. This was my first step into the world of Instagram. A world that I am still a part of, and a relatively active member of the community, almost 8 years later.

Those we rely on to support our decision making, to help us do a better job at work, to answer our technical questions, to share our knowledge of a new innovation on a project – all of these circles have shrunk

Our diversity of accessible knowledge we trust – that has lessened.

Not deliberately, but gradually and unknowingly – I feel I am poorer.

I’d bet most of us work in jobs that are inherently about our knowledge and experiences. Gaining more knowledge and experience leads us to more fulfilling work, maybe promotions, maybe different roles – a sense of purpose and worth. Sharing these with others for their benefit and the benefit of their work often gives us joy. Now the source of those gains is smaller, now our capacity to share is reduced are we still growing and developing as we want to?
