The Copernicus of today.

Nicolaus Copernicus was the first to present indisputable proof of the heliocentric world. He dared to claim that the Earth orbits the Sun! I can’t help but wonder how he felt like at the time.

The church opposed him because their tenets and Bible said that the Earth stays still.

Let’s build a bonfire and burn the heretic!

One hundred years later a fellow called Galileo Galilei brought up the heliocentric theory again. The church still did not like it, but little by little the evidence started to claim space from beliefs.

And take a look at the school books of today. Boy, have we come far?

It always takes time for such a shift in thinking to take place. Lucky for us, we don’t need to wait for hundreds of years for such miracles anymore.

Getting exposure to your idea is easier than ever. Distributing your concept has never been faster. And it is likely that no one wants to burn you on a stake either.

You are the Copernicus of today.

Go out and just start.
