“You don’t speak for us”, is a warning for all of us too | Things to Consider | A Community Route

It is very easy to get caught up in the praise and acknowledgement we have or that we receive from those who agree with or who appreciate our message.

However, there are a lot of people in the world, and a lot of minds to be changed, no matter how many of them may or may not be needed for ideas of change to reach any kind of critical mass.

The phenomenon of those in the public eye who insist that they speak for everyone, when it is clear that they don’t, is very real.

Don’t fall into the trap of believing that positive praise from very few is representative of how the majority already does or will ultimately feel.

Work hard and do the right thing at every opportunity, until the job is over and done.
