As you state, vision is such a critical element to success. It fuels the persistence one needs to weather the storms that slow progress and throw the venture off course. The vision provides a position fix to help get back on course.

It has taken a while for me to fully accept that a vision will only be shared by early adopters, who in their own visionary way can embrace new ideas and tolerate breaking old paradigms. Many others will dismiss the vision as illusion or delusion afflicting someone who’s been on the front line too long, biased by their obsession.

Your piece reinforces the importance of assembling a team who can share the vision, while still considering the views of naysayers who may help illuminate the obstacles to avoid.

Your brief insights are great. Now, it’s time to buy the book and really get into the lessons you offer.
