半成品或者学习过程，有必要show吗？
有必要，为了寻找同伴，为了激发好奇与创意。
与其相信天才genius,不如senius（一群人的天才）。回看历史，很多你以为是孤独天才型的人物，其实他们都属于一个小团体。在这个小团体中，大家互相支持，互相审视彼此作品，互相借鉴，copy，偷窃，贡献新点子。
这样的团体正是说明：优秀的作品不是凭空在某个大脑中产生的。是一群人的智慧合作。所以，如果我们不认为自己是天才，也可以做出很棒的作品。我们需要成为这样的senius的一分子，分享贡献，连结互助。
如果你正在学习，或者正在半途，没有完整的作品，也一定要晒出来你的过程。因为
最好的开始做事方式就是：思考你想学什么，然后在别人面前展现分享出你的努力。如此才会找到同伴，找到你的senius。你想让别人找到你，你得可以被搜索到。你想让别人了解你，关心你做的事，你喜欢的东西，你得先分享出来。
是否share这个？
诚实开放的展现你喜欢的东西，是最有效的办法联结上与你志同道合的人。没有什么让人羞愧不好意思的爱好。如果你就是喜欢，那就继续喜欢。
如果你不确定到底要不要分享什么东西，那先等等24小时吧。把东西放回抽屉，走出家门散散步。第二天，拿出来再看，带着新鲜的目光。问问自己：这东西有用吗？有趣吗？如果我老板我老妈看到这玩意，我能hold住吗？ 反正之后分享也行。
初学者也能show吗？
可以啊。
如果你刚开始做事，那你可以分享影响你、激发你，或者你正在学习的 人、书、文章、视、网站等等。
如果你已经在某个项目半途，可以写写你的方法，分享你的工作进程。
如果你刚刚完成一个项目，那就秀出你的作品，分享你的草稿，或者写写你学会了什么。
每天分享一点点比最后的单一总结更好。因为它实时呈现你正在做的事情。
比如你学完什么东西，转身就可以教给别人。分享你的阅读清单，有用的参考资料。你也可以自己制作教程，分享到网上。图片、文字、视频都行。引导别人一步一步走过你曾经的路。
不要表演做事
不要让分享这事优先于你实际做事。
如果你觉得有点难以平衡两者，不妨设置一个半小时的倒计时。如果分享到网上这一步骤超过30分钟了，速速撤离网络，回去工作吧。
你的个人网站是你的好奇屋
如果从本书 Show Your Work! 你只get一件事，那就是先买一个你名字的域名，开始show your work~ 晒出你在做的事情。但是，你的个人网站不是你的宣传机器。不妨把它看做一个创造自我的装置。
在你的个人网站上，放上你的工作、你的想法、你喜欢的东西。也许，几年过去，你可能忘记这些，转而追逐其他更新更炫的事物。不要放弃这些点子。不要遗忘它们。想想长期主义。坚持，专注，慢慢来，实现它们。
偷偷藏着，什么都不分享。这样最大的问题是你可能坐吃山空，容易变成一滩死水。如果你分享出你有的东西，你就什么都不剩了。这样你就不得不再次阅读，观看，学习，装满自己。反正，你给的越多，你收回的也越多。
什么不能share?
千万记住：你放在网上的任何东西，都会变得公开，所有人都看得到。“互联网就是个大复制机”。
用开放的心态，分享那些不完美，正在进行的作品。因为你期待对他们的反馈。但是绝对不要什么都分享！分享，和过度分享，这差距可太大了。
分享——这是一种慷慨大方的美德体现。你放出去，因为你觉得它可能对读者有用有趣。
过度分享——这是人造垃圾。。
注意版权。不要分享那些你没有版权的东西。如果没有授权，那就别分享。
为作品说话
用作品说话，作品也需要你为它说话。
起码得给你的作品配个标签吧，就想博物馆里每件东西旁边的那个小简介。
这个作品work是什么。
谁做的。
怎么被做出来的。
什么时候，在哪里。
为什么你现在要分享这个作品。
为什么我们需要关心你这个作品。
如果有人觉得你这作品不错，哪里有更多这样的作品？
你从哪里找到某个作品的？——这条常被忽略。
这些blabla蛮重要的。怎么为你的作品说话介绍，会很大影响别人对你作品的评价。
哪里都需要讲故事
如果能给你的作品讲故事，就更好了。可以先从自我介绍开始，自我介绍也是个故事。
“白天，我写代码，晚上，我写诗歌”
无论这个故事完整或者未完成，把你的听众放在心上。说大白话，说人话。珍惜他们的时间。说的短点。
得读读看看那些伟大的故事。学学如何讲自己的故事。
粉丝重要吗？
如果你想要被人粉你，你自己肯定也在粉个什么。你想被某个社区接纳，你先在这个社区里做个好公民。如果你只是把一堆东西放在网上，还是不够，你得和他人连结起来。
别总想着多少人在follow你。想想有多少有趣的人在follow你。
想要followers，你得值得被follow.你想变得有趣，你先对某些事情感兴趣起来啊。
窍门是：不要讨好所有人。只关心那些正确的人是如何想你的。
同伴最重要
同伴，就是和你喜欢一样的东西，和你进行相似的事业，和你三观差不多相同。总之，志同道合。
这样的人一般不多。但是他们太太太重要了。珍惜他们。做各种能让你们的友谊继续下去的事情。邀请他们一起做事。给他们优先分享你的作品，在公开之前。打电话给他们。保持彼此的亲密联系。
我喜欢叫自己做艺术的朋友带我去他们喜欢的艺术馆，让作家朋友去他们喜欢的书店。如果我们一时都没话说了，我们可以随便浏览店里的东西。如果看腻了，就再一起喝杯咖啡。
吸血鬼测试
简单的方法判断你是不是应该继续和某人交往，或者继续做某事。
如果你和这个人相处完之后，你觉得累瘫了，被吸干了。那这个人就是个吸血鬼。远离他吧。如果你和这个人相处完，仍然觉得身体满满能量，那这个人就不是吸血鬼。
这条当然也适用于各种事物。比如：刷完朋友圈是更烦躁了，还是被激励了？
此书目录+以上英文原文（￣︶￣）↗ ：
- you don’t have to be a genius
- think process, not product
- share something small every day
- open up your cabinet of curisosities
- tell good stories
- teach what you know
- fon’t turn into human spam
- learn to take a punch
- sell out
- stick around
If you look back closely at history, many of the people who we think of as lone geniuses were actually part of “ a whole scene of people who were supporting each other, looking at each other’s work, copying from each other, stealing ideas, and contributing ideas”.
The best way to get started on the path to sharing your work is to think about what you want to learn, and make a commitment to learning it in front of others.
If you want people to know about what you do and the things you care about, you have to share.
In order to be found,you have to be findable.
Being open and honest about what you like is the best way to connect with people who like those things, too.
“I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. If you f—ing like something, like it.”
If you’re unsure about whether to share something, let it sit for 24 hours. Put it in a drawer and walk out the door. The next day, take it out and look at it with fresh eyes. Ask yourself, “Is this helpful? Is it entertaining? Is it something I’d be comfortable with my boss or my mother seeing?” There’s nothing wrong with saving things for later.
If you’re in the very early stages, share your influences and what’s inspiring you. If you’re in the middle of executing a project, write about your methods or share works in progress. If you’ve just completed a project, show the final product, share scraps from the cutting-room floor, or write about what you learned.
A daily dispatch is even better than a résumé or a portfolio, because it shows what we’re working on right now. When the artist Ze Frank was interviewing
The minute you learn something, turn around and teach it to others. Share your reading list. Point to helpful reference materials. Create some tutorials and post them online. Use pictures, words, and video. Take people step-by-step through part of your process.
don’t let sharing your work take precedence over actually doing your work.
If you’re having a hard time balancing the two, just set a timer for 30 minutes. Once the timer goes off, kick yourself off the Internet and get back to work.
Don’t think of your website as a self-promotion machie, think of it as a self-invention machine.
Fill your website with your work and your ideas and the stuff you care about. Over the yeas, you will be tempted to abandon it for the newest,shiniest social network.Don’t give in.Don’t let it fall into neglect. Think about it in the longterm. Stick with it, maitain it, and let it change with you over time.
“The problem with hoarding is you end up living off your reserves. Eventually, you’ll become stale. If you give away everything you have, you are left with nothing. This forces you to look, to be aware, to replenish. . . . Somehow the more you give away, the more comes back to you.”
Always remember that anything you post to the Internet has now become public. “The Internet is a copy machine,”
Be open, share imperfect and unfinished work that you want feedback on, but don’t share absolutely everything. There’s a big, big difference between sharing and over-sharing.
The act of sharing is one of generosity—you’re putting something out there because you think it might be helpful or entertaining to someone on the other side of the screen.
Don’t share things you can’t properly credit. Find the right credit, or don’t share.
Attribution is all about providing context for what you’re sharing: what the work is, who made it, how they made it, when and where it was made, why you’re sharing it, why people should care about it, and where people can see some more work like it. Attribution is about putting little museum labels next to the stuff you share.
Another form of attribution that we often neglect is where we found the work that we’re sharing.>
“When shown an object, or given a food, or shown a face, people’s assessment of it—how much they like it, how valuable it is—is deeply affected by what you tell them about it.”
Artists love to trot out the tired line, “My work speaks for itself,” but the truth is, our work doesn’t speak for itself.
“By day I’m a web designer, and by night I write poetry.”)
Whether you’re telling a finished or unfinished story, always keep your audience in mind. Speak to them directly in plain language. Value their time. Be brief. Learn to speak. Learn to write. Use spell-check. You’re never “keeping it real” with your lack of proofreading and punctuation, you’re keeping it unintelligible.
So study the great stories and then go find some of your own. Your stories will get better the more you tell them.
If you want fans, you have to be a fan first. If you want to be accepted by a community, you have to first be a good citizen of that community. If you’re only pointing to your own stuff online, you’re doing it wrong. You have to be a connector.
Stop worrying about how many people follow you online and start worrying about the quality of people who follow you.
If you want followers, be someone worth following.
If you want to be interesting, you have to be interested.
“The trick is not caring what EVERYBODY thinks of you and just caring about what the RIGHT people think of you.”
These are your real peers—the people who share your obsessions, the people who share a similar mission to your own, the people with whom you share a mutual respect. There will only be a handful or so of them, but they’re so, so important. Do what you can to nurture your relationships with these people. Sing their praises to the universe. Invite them to collaborate. Show them work before you show anybody else. Call them on the phone and share your secrets. Keep them as close as you can.
I like asking my artist friends to take me to their favorite art museums and asking my writer friends to take me to their favorite bookstore. If we get sick of talking to one another, we can browse, and if we get sick of browsing, we can grab a coffee in the café.
The Vampire Test. It’s a simple way to know who you should let in and out of your life. If, after hanging out with someone you feel worn out and depleted, that person is a vampire. If, after hanging out with someone you still feel full of energy, that person is not a vampire.
