Daydreaming is the first step, necessary and extremely useful.Alone on her own the visionary role does not go far enough though.

What happens is that usually the capability of visionary (seeing what does not exist yet in front of you like it is real)is related with your personality.

People who has not this capability could not really see what does not exist, but they are essential for following the roadmap(tracker) the good visionary can design.

The tracker personality on her own can't really go far enough too. This person does not really know where to go.

You can do both roles yourself, the visionary and the tracker, but that is very hard because you have to switch roles, almost like Mr Jekyl and Mr Hyde. And you will have a very strong tendency towards one of them.

Or you can partner with someone who is a "natural" tracker if you are a natural "visionary". The sum of the parts will be much better than the individual parts.
