You have a third alternative:I agree with you. If you can hear God talking to you, you have 2 alternatives:
1) Never mention it to anyone, and just live your life.
2) Find followers that will support you.
If you can't find followers that will support you, just stick to #1.
Share it with others, speak openly about it but don't expect people to follow you or for you to become a religious leader
Basically have realistic expectations because the era a prophets is now over
Expect people to listen to you but don't expect to make disciples of them
People may be interested in your ideas but you will never become a guru
