Time to consolidate...
All right then, hopefully by now you have followed the previous steps and have first, Organized around a Strategy, then formed your revolutionary cell, then attended your first Occupy event and lastly (but certainly not least.) executed your first prank. Are we having fun yet? Good!
Hopefully along the way you've also been taking lots of photographs, collecting fliers and buttons and other mementos of your experience in the Occupy movement. My recommendation is that you purchase a photograph album and begin a scrapbook of your adventures. Not only will it chronicle the story of your Occupy participation it will also serve as a recruiting and educational tool too. Remember, showing is always more effective than telling. Someday these scrapbooks will be important informational resources for historians and important heirlooms to pass on to our children. Someday when my own son is studying the Occupy movement in school I want him to be able to show his friends that his daddy stood up and fought against the system when it needed fighting against. I want him to know that should his time ever come to fight for justice, equality and freedom that he can do it too. Chronicle your stories, preserve our history. Someday our children will be glad we did.
Consolidate, according to the dictionary means, 1. Make (something) physically stronger or more solid. 2. Reinforce or strengthen (one's position or power).
Step six is about part one of the definition, making something more solid. If you haven't put together a version of the "Big Red Book" yet, now is the time to do so. If you haven't taken the time to develop a daily schedule for reading the strategy plan, "Strategizing For a Living Revolution", now is the time to do so and if you haven't yet started your scrapbook, now is the time to do so. (Remember, showing people what you are doing will always have greater impact than talking about what you're doing.)
(When you have completed step six by making your revolutionary cell more solid through creating a "Big Red Book", of your own, setting aside time for daily study of the strategy guide and starting a scrapbook of your revolutionary cell's adventures, proceed to step seven.)
Again, simple as that...
