When siblings inherit a family business with conflicting visions

My brother and I inherited our family's small business when Dad retired but we have completely different visions for what to do with it and we're both afraid that if we can't agree, we'll have to sell it. We keep avoiding the hard conversations because we know how much this place means to our family history.
