Another idea (I'm on a morning's rant fasting). WA's GOT TALENT!, but before you say anything give me a chance to explain why I post this and how this will benefit the community, OK?

I find incredibly hard to deal with information overload and ideas overload. There are so many gems out there, but the day still has 24 hours and we have to choose what we read and the actions we take if we don't want to get paralyzed.

A short story to introduce this new baby project

One of my buddies sent me a PM, telling me that he had won a contest which I had no idea existed. I got curious, search for a reference he made, another user, and I discovered another like-minded spirit! @LindaRiel

"I am a massive idea factory. The more I read and connect, the more ideas I seem to get. Now the trick will be to work it into something cohesive that I can run long term"

I checked one of her blogs, and I found another gem. Many hours and resources devoted to a giveaway, with real value, 100% related to WA guidelines. But...

• 3 people interested
  
• 2 likes (now 3, including mine)
• not even one 'thank you, but I pass'

I don't know, I don't get it. I was a little disappointed with the result of my own giveaways, but I said to myself, 'keep on rowing, it's not time yet...' and moved on.

Linda has been doing the same with fewer results (and she is better than me).

Is it fair? Is there a conspiracy against creative people? Wrong questions.

This is what happens in real life. To get exposure, no matter how good your product is, you need to take into account many factors. And costs. Or be doomed to fail.

I'm resilient and stubborn. I refuse to accept many rules without questioning them to check if they really make sense. Or I try to think outside of the box and explore original ways to overcome my limitations.

So the proposal is to create WAGT

• Nominate 4 judges
• Nominate candidates to show their talents
• Share with other members by PM to make this viral
• Create a prize for the winner

Who's in?

BTW, I want to give Linda my acknowledgment sharing her latest blog link:
