I'm something of an ideas person - I'm always full of great ideas to change the world (well - I think they are great anyway). For once, a few other people agreed that one of my ideas was worth pursuing, and it's actually looking like it might be implemented.
The thing I'm finding difficult is letting go - now my idea is out there and people are grabbing bits of it and discarding others and it's morphing into something that isn't quite what I thought up anymore.
It is an interesting process - I realize that logically some of their ideas are good, too, and I know that I can't do it all myself so I need their help. But.... letting people tamper with my idea is sometime painful. Hence I'm writing this entry to remind myself that what people are doing is good!
