The only thing that matters, is results. Specifically the results of my clients.

I don’t really use linked in, but a visionary is a very specific role. You goto the edge, you find what’s useful, you relay that back to others. It’s what I’ve done my entire life.

I also coach, invent things, create art and am an activist.

My clients are the most successful people in the world and don’t come through LinkedInn.

My offer of free support still stands.

What matters is value add from your work for your clients. If your clients are already the most successful people in the world, you have to have a very good method of identifying and quantifying your value add.

I can certainly see how one might think that. However in practice the kinds of things happening in peoples lives are out beyond the ken of “quantifying your value add”.

Our clients regularly cite immeasurably positive ROI — like finding their soul mate, having a child, gaining clarity on how to spend the next decade, healing old traumas, etc.

Also interesting but perhaps not surprising is that people who are at the top of a domain, are often challenged in other areas — super powers often come with challenges.
