Work. The difference is work or effort.
It doesn't matter if you have 50 excellent ideas each day, you are going to be outclassed by the guy who has one mediocre idea that he executes relentlessly.
Because that is the one quality that separates the successful from the unsuccessful: tenacity or perseverance. No matter what, you keep trying. Failure isn't a showstopper, just an indication that you need to modify your strategy. Keep plugging away at it and you to can find yourself with an overnight success after 10 years.
- Tycho 16y agoWork is just another form of capital, even if it's your own. I mean consider one person has an idea for a product, and they sketch out their requirements then employ engineers to build accordingly. Let's say another person has an idea then with their own skills builds a more successful product. Was the second person more successful because they worked harder than the first - no, because they didn't necessarily work any harder than the engineers that were commissioned. The difference, however, could be that along the way the solo worker came up with many additional ideas which he could then add to the project. I agree with the notion that one great idea ALONE does not guarantee success. But that's different from saying ideas are worthless.
