One of the big problems we have is people looking at ideas so narrow minded. Now before you become offended, please let me continue. If someone comes up with an idea, half the time it is blown off and not given real consideration. Example; My husband and i talked about the boycott of Exxon and pilot I thought it was a great idea. I posted it and no one had any interest. So i let it go on the forum. I did however start out on my own and with others (not on the forum) to put this in motion. A couple of weeks later i posted on the forum that i had began the boycott and i was ready for the fallout from everyone on why it wouldn't do any good etc. After a few days, people here decided to jump on board. It took off and look where it is now. Sometimes we have to open our minds and try to see what other people can see. I give ideas alot of thought before i put them out there and they are ideas that i am passionate about that will make a difference. So please before you blow off an idea, stop, think and try to look at the big picture. Always consider what can be accomplished with the idea. Sometimes other people can see things that you can't.
