> Torvalds said he subscribes to the view that successful projects are 99 per cent perspiration, and one per cent innovation Certainly true. IMHO, innovation is about orientation, while perspiration is about walking. They live in different timescales: GTD takes time while innovation is a spark. However, both are equally important: it would be useless to go forward in a wrong direction, it would be useless to identify a meaningful direction without going forward, and it would be of course useless to walk backward. An acceptable - and subjective ! - balance is hard to find, these days.
