Some visions change the world. Others fade away with the life of the individual who birthed them.
What makes the difference?
The visions that make the most impact are the ones that other people can grasp. If no one understands the idea, it will not transfer into the world.
But some ideas resonate with everyone around them. To grow, a vision has to catch fire in the soul of someone who can carry it on.
Some people call it social capital. I say it’s vision casting. Surround yourself with people who are willing to have a part in putting your vision for the world into action, even if just in part.
Then, when you die, your vision will live beyond you.
