TRUST ME HE’S BRILLIANT
When you have a brilliant or not so brilliant idea it’s best to share this with only a close circle of friends that are honest but also truly understand you. Of course sharing the idea with the wrong person will enable them to steal the idea and get all the credit but that is only half the problem. The other problem is that an individual might discourage or create such a fuzz that you decide it’s not worth pursuing your idea even though deep down inside you know you should. How do you find that right person who will tell you the truth but not totally discourage you? In this case I believe it takes 2 individuals for this conquest.
(1) First have one cheerleader in your corner that seems to always love your ideas.
(2) Find a friend or family member that believes in new ideas but also can read between the lines, so that you will fully understand the hurdles you will face along the way. This is the type of individual who will not only explain the hurdles but give you a way you might jump over them.
