IS ANYONE PURSUING AN UNPOPULAR YET VIRTUOUS & REVOLUTIONARY IDEA? NEVER STOP TRUDGING FORWARD


IS ANYONE PURSUING AN UNPOPULAR REVOLUTIONARY YET VIRTUOUS IDEA? - NEVER STOP TRUDGING FORWARD
Never stop trudging forward, never stop moving in the quest for your mission. Sometimes the mission is very unpopular not because it would result in negative consequences but because of its seeming impossibility to an observer using only empirical evidence to discredit the mission. Because of it newness and freshness, it could even be a typical zero-to-one mission as Peter Thiel would put it. Being something untried and unknown there naturally wouldn't be any empirical backing to support the reasoning behind it, however the embryonic state of the idea and mission in one's mind is evidence enough to encourage the individual to nurture it and see it develop into a consuming purpose and eventual success.
Sticking out one's mission means sweating it through and investing one's energy into it. Moments come in the pursuit of unpopular missions and ideas when one only has their faith in the idea to hold onto with little to no support system at all around the mission.
It is this faith in the mission that needs to be exercised daily like a muscle which gets better with use and right exercise in order to hold when its most needed to lest it tear and cause severe damage.
Never stop moving, never let up, fail and fall forward in pursuit of the virtuous mission even if it's unpopular. Being unpopular makes it special all the more reason one needs to put in extraordinary effort to  see it through and make it work. A resoundingly popular idea would get easy support and acceptance largely  because of availability of empirical evidence backing its chances of success, however this goes on to mean that its neither fresh nor new but an iteration based on what has already been seen.
Breaking new ground and charting new paths is often met with resistance and skepticism until there is tangible evidence of benefits and usefulness to the general populace.
Those who espouse such ideas and missions therefore ought to brace for that gap and embryonic stage of their ideas because it is more often than not a lonely journey between the conception of the revolutionary idea and its coming to life.
Once it begins to show positive beneficial results the buy-in is natural and it gains popularity. It is only then that one gets vindicated and gets tremendous support which they could have used the entire time whilst developing the idea. This is when the mission gets accomplished and one gets the thrill of achievement and fulfillment, the ensuing growth from there is just daily acknowledgement of one's tenacity, patience and courage through the developmental stage of the once unpopular mission.
Never stop moving and working on an idea that will bring about positive revolutionary change just because it is unpopular, build your faith in it and stick it out fear not to ask for help, look around knowing that due to its revolutionary and fresh newness very few people would support it in the initial stages but the few that do would throw in their full moral support & resources if they happen to have the capacity.

Nelson Mandela said " It seems impossible until it's done." Boy was he right!!
