Random complaint. sorry it's a little ranty.

Why are people so quick to dismiss ideas of other just because someone else failed at it? I mean--REALLY? I hate it when I talk to someone, and I give them an idea, then I ask them for their support. They answer by smiling and saying, 'thats a really good idea. You should do that' (not sarcastic). Then I say, 'Yes, but I need help. Will you do this with me?". Then they answer with something like, "Oh, people would never listen to me!" or, "I would just hold you down.". NO! If I ask for support, then I don't think it will be an issue! If I did, I wouldn't have asked!

This brings me to a point where you can agree or disagree. I think, that a lot of things that need changing, don't change because people don't think that they could make a difference. Personally, I don' think one person BY THEMSELVES can make any difference at all. However, if it was a GROUP of people, then there's something. Also, making a change is not going out with a couple of friends, yelling at people outside your local grocery store, then going and having a picnic with your buddies. I'm sorry, but I can't see that working no matter what. I think that making change is something that you work for. In my opinion, it is done at least semi-professionally. Not behind McDonalds. Sorry, but it annoys me when I see people behind someplace with their cheeseburgers holding a sign that no one can actually read.

I guess my point is, change isn't easy. So if you think something is really worth changing, it will take time and effort. But that doesn't mean give up. It just means be ready.
