Fly Out Front

12 • You Got to Be a little bit Crazy to Fly Out Front

Hide in Plain Sight: Be “Certifiably Identifiable”

• Don’t be ashamed of your movement and its mission • If God has given you a burden or an idea, don’t hide it; start sharing it with others • Sign “on the dotted line” for your idea and movement; be open and public about it • Embrace your movement’s motto; wear its mark/logo; get the virtual tattoo • Ritualize entrance into the movement; make it a big deal for folk to join your community • Welcome all volunteers, recruits, and donors to your cause; beg them to go get others • Speak the same language in your movement; use the same words to mean the same things about the same stuff • Wear the same uniforms and apparels in the movement – remember and wear proudly its colors • March to the same beat (even if you dance your unique dance to it) • Produce stuff that movement leaders will be proud to show
