No. Obviously you don't necessarily have to convince others to adopt it to be truly it.
I agree with Yudkowski here... I think that every rationalist, if s/he wants to maximize winning and fun, should convince at least some other people to be rational.
This is trivial for many 'system' of thinking when they address global status of the environment, since it's easy to predict results when the whole world thinks alike. Luckily though rationality can be used in a world which hosts different (and competing!) such systems.
