What problem does it solve?

Starting a new project when you have capacity but can’t begin—especially when the blank page feels heavy, lonely, or paralyzing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Unhollow explanation: Contrasts typical “activation energy/perfectionism” framings with the felt reality of collapsing infinite possibility into one choice.
  • Felt wisdom across traditions: Uses Taoist, Zen, Japanese ma, Rumi, Sphoṭa, and others to rebuild the concept as lived experience rather than a mechanism diagram.
  • Situation-based tests & failure mode: Teaches what it sounds like when an answer stays hollow, and how to verify “felt sense” through scenarios (not questions).

Quick Start

Use the starting-cold skill to help a person begin a new writing project by describing what the blank page is doing to them in felt terms.
