Nevertheless, people that do not like writing should use help of great service and enjoy a success.

I'd never looked at Joseph's story that way. One of the things I'm thinking about, after having read your thoughts, is that I have this tendency to view people who don't buy into my dreams as enemies, are at best not-friends. But our dreams are journeys. There are some people who we travel an entire journey with. And others who just join us for one little part of the trip. In physical journeys, we recognize that it's o.k. to travel with people when we're all headed in the same direction, and when it's time to part ways, we can part ways with friendly hearts and solid relations. I'm thinking particularly about your category #3 "Not everyone is going to continue buying into your dream even if they first do." It occurs to me that I don't need to be all angry, resentful, and betrayed by these people. For a while, we were headed in the same direction; when it's time to part ways, I really can do it with kindness and love. Interesting thoughts, Steve. I'd never looked at Joseph's story that way.
