I've heard a lot of people say things like, "The Marines lead the way. They are the first into the battle."
I have a friend who suggested that I start looking for "a few good men (and women)" who would be willing to be leaders and help start what he called "The Association of Progressive Cattle Producers."
Members of this association would agree that change is inevitable and is necessary in the competitive arena of food production. They would be willing to embrace change if the evidence of a particular change is strong enough to suggest that it would be good for individual producers as they seek to improve profitability as they work within their good and individual value systems.
They would be content to let the others waste their time in endless, pointless verbal battles on this and that while they get on with the business of making changes and improving the availability and quality of beef and bottom line profitability, and they would do this with the hope that many of their friends and neighbors would sooner or later understand what they are doing and would get in the game.
They would be willing to do their work not only to improve their own individual operations, but would be willing to do it in such a way as to be "the light on the hill" for all to see so that the entire beef industry will benefit from their positive examples in the long run. And most of all, just like the majority of the Marines going over the hill into battle, because they love their fellow man, and they want to be an example of how our love for each other is really the only solution to all the challenges we face collectively.
Are you the kind of person who would like to be a member of "The Association of Progressive Cattle Producers?" Maybe you want more information. Maybe you want to tell someone why you think it won't work. Whatever your position, send me an email and let's talk. I think my friend may have a good idea here.
Thanks for your time and consideration!
