What does., it take to get an
'idea actualized? How do we
move' froiin' the drawing board to
• enactment? This is a critical
question . in the life of a
eorrlrnunity., There are many
• worthy projects that never get
past the idea stage in Goderich.
Why?, ,
We have the necessary
personnel, in this cornrnunity to
do -almost anything. This town
has . more creative people than
Whatever area you wish to
consider, the. arts, managerial,
labour, there is, talent to burn.
We have the necessary
finances•inxhis•.cornrnunit.ta da
41Mo:t anything. -We 'May' ncit be
rolling in green backs but few of
us are suffering. We' live in a
country where federal and
provincial grants abound for
those , who want to promote
cornrnunity projects.
- Where is the bottleneck? Why
do so many valid projects. die on
the drawing board? The answer
can be ,found, in our lack of
cornrnunity involvement.
Someone gets an idea. He or she
.is willing .to spend endless hours
of work moving' that idea
towards enactment. There is one
essential missing, Sharing the
idea and the ',work . with a
significant nurnber of people.
Getting the idea accepted by the
~the
at large.
The essential stage of
cornrnunity support for any
project is very threatening. It is
at this precise stage that we
have to share. It is at this step
in the mechanics of getting
things done that our ideas cease
to a private property and
given over to the cornrnunity at
large my idea becornea public
property.. It can be adapted,
changed; or even rejected: • This
is -our =bottleneck.-=-Mere+=is- :the-
grave of Many a great idea. It
must be done my way. •
Read :the.past years' issues of
the Signal -Star and see for
yourself how right or wrong this
analysis. .is. See how many
projects remain ;the. private
property of the few. You want
an idea to _become a reality?
Then accept one of the major
steps., in that process: the
eliciting of community support
and involvement. •
If a thing is worth' doing, it is
worth doing well' - Isn't it?
