Nathan Miller argues that when your original idea gets dismissed by everyone around you, that's a sign it came from somewhere divine. Only you have the context to understand it. He frames it as a chess master playing moves we can't see, so trust yourself and ignore the doubters.
vision, some sort of idea that you thought of that you think is really, really good, and you share it with your friends or with people who are like you, or you share it with your family, and they just don't see it, and they doubt you, and they don't think that it's going to work out. That's a good thing because that means that God provided you, and specifically you, only you, with the context to understand this idea. And there's something special about that. There's something special about no one else seeing the vision, no one else seeing the process and seeing what you see. And you be able— being able, even though the doubt, whatever, to still go through with it and trust your intuition. Because how much more will it mean to yourself and to your self-belief and to your self-confidence if you go through with it? And you actually make it work, and it actually does work out, and it accomplishes all the things you've envisioned in your head and all the things that you've hoped it would be, right? How much does that change the perspective of other people's opinions to yourself, right? It changes it a lot. Now you're not going to know— you're going to have this experience, right, where you, you made it work, right? Regardless of what other people said, you're not going to care what people think anymore. You're not going to care what people have to say because you know these ideas and these, these things that populate your head, these thoughts that are creative and that are unique and are new, that they're not from human beings, right? Good ideas don't come from human beings. They come from someone with a lot more knowledge, right? And when you understand that this person who has this overwhelming knowledge that's given you this idea they are the chess master, right? They are the, you know, 3,000 ELO chess master, and we are the pawns trying to understand those ideas. So no, don't listen to other people and trust your intuition.
