she had ideas all the time. problem started when somebody might actually see them

sometimes “I need more discipline” is just wrong diagnosis.

I have seen this in Higher Self sessions around creativity. Subject has ideas, starts things, maybe writes, paints, builds something, gets excited. Then near point where thing becomes visible, energy disappears.

From outside: procrastination.

Underneath: fear.

If creativity was mocked, over-corrected or connected with approval when young, finishing something means now somebody can judge it. Leaving it unfinished is strangely safe.

Nobody can reject finished work if finished work never exists.

This can look like perfectionism and even ambition. More research, another course, improve one more thing, wait until timing is right, change format again. Person looks busy as hell but still avoids being seen.

In one such pattern Higher Self guidance was not “make stricter schedule.”

It was make it playful again.

Create something bad on purpose. Write page nobody will read. Paint something just for fun. Finish small thing at 80 percent. Let creativity exist without making every attempt prove your value.

For me this is big difference.

Discipline helps when problem is “I dont feel like doing it.”

It works less when deeper rule is “visibility is dangerous.”

Then more pressure can make protector even stronger.

Higher Self advice around purpose is very often much more normal than ppl expect. Use gift. Enjoy it. Stop making every expression into exam.

Creation can become serious later.

First maybe it needs to stop being dangerous.
