Nice to have you here. To be honest, I think elaboration is a great way to get thoughts straight. That, and you'll get a more detailed response from people if you're honest with us.
Narrating about daily life and opinions is a pretty good way to encourage responses from a tulpa, whatever the form may be. Narration can also be incorporated into your everyday activities and be a pretty simple form of passive forcing. Like you described before, some people focus really intensely in active sessions and burn themselves out or do it in large gaps. There are also people whose tulpas progress slowly because all they do is casually toss thoughts their way and expect them to pick up the slack. Personally, I believe that passive forcing can have its own positive effects on development and that time spent passively forcing should be balanced with active forcing (then again, you hardly know me and my preaching about the wonders of passive forcing wouldn't mean shit). The key word here, though, is balance. Make an effort to narrate to your tulpa frequently during the day, and set aside some time for just the two of you when you can. If there's something you feel you want to work on, set aside more time. If you're going to be cramped for time for a few days or a week, squeeze in a little attention on-the-go.
For future reference, take shit I say with a grain of salt. I'm still new to things as far as tulpas go, but I'll throw my two cents in when I can whether anyone wants them or not.
Again, it's nice to meet you, and we're looking forward to hearing more from you.
