So often society loves to label folks who threaten their belief systems, power bases or ways of doing things as crazy. Yes, this is one tactic that the “establishment,” associations, governments, academics use to dismiss challenges to their power base, this is typical human behavior. Actually being labeled helps because then you can get away with pushing the boundaries even further and further and further. Then you will get a following anyway, once that happens they cannot stop you. You have the ultimate excuse; You are Crazy remember, so, in the end this maybe of supreme benefit to you.

If you are an innovator, entrepreneur, thinker or high self-esteem individual you no doubt have been labeled at some time in your life as crazy or wrong or perhaps they called you; NUTS! You should realize that indeed is always the individual that changes the World, never the status quo. It is the individual that moves societies and civilizations, never the bureaucratic mess of mislead masses marching in the wrong direction only because this is the direction they were going before and therefore they wish to remain moving in.

Do not be afraid to be labeled crazy, honor it. This means that others see you are an independent thinker and not like the rest of the masses. In fact little do they know they have elevated your status to a change maker or person of worthiness. Only the mindless masses are irrelevant, not the individual. So if you have been labeled by the group as unlike them. I salute you, as you are really one of a much higher breed. Consider all this in 2006.
