I wrote this as my facebook status:

Practice random acts of kindness, especially towards strangers. Strangers are the salvation in this world, either for them or within ourselves. I've been saved by strangers and I've been the stranger that saved. Be the stranger.

Brenda Crompton

This whole notion of helping strangers is in many ways the foundation of business. We are out there to share our vision with the world, granted. However, I believe that very few of us are out there to "take others" or "rip them off". We are Entrepreneurs because we want to give something of ourselves, our ideas to helping others.

Let's call it the Inventor's problem. Too often we imagine the solution to a problem in the world as we see it. We go about inventing the solution to the problem in our own little world. Somehow we are taught that we need to keep these ideas a secret until we are ready to unleash them on the world. Then the customers will be clamoring to our door, eager to pounce on the previously unavailable treasure.
