At the suggestion of my realtor, when I purchased my new house I went to Nationwide for a new insurance policy.

What a shock. The original agent didn't return my first 3 calls. Oh stupid me! I should have known there would be trouble ahead at that point, but I trusted my realtor.

Anyone have any thoughts about what happens to an old visionary like me when the ideas I've been distinctively touting become mainstream?

Do I become mainstream?

Do I get caught up in the delivery of a mainstream product that would be best delivered by others? or do I move on, finding other venues for my ideas and seek new visionary markets?

What happens to the rest of my new/creative/visionary ideas that I dream of bringing to market?

I fear there is no right answer here.

Brian Tracy is a kind, dear, and very smart, man.

After years and years of me being the lone voice in the wilderness, crying IT'S THE BUYING DECISION, STUPID!, there are now several training folks talking about sales being about the buyer, not the product. Cool. But is that the underlying thought here?
