No, ideas are a dime a dozen. You seem to think of ideas as "thought + action" but then it's not an idea anymore; it's a real product with an idea behind it. Yo

No, ideas are a dime a dozen. You seem to think of ideas as "thought + action" but then it's not an idea anymore; it's a real product with an idea behind it. Your example of your dad is a perfect example of why ideas really are a dime a dozen. That mantra isn't about saying that ideas themselves are worthless, it's about the idea that ideas alone with no action are worthless. I think the mantra stands as correct still.
- Mz 14y agoSorry, I don't agree. There are some very important game changing ideas. The concept of zero is historically important. The concept of gravity is historically important. Those were not companies, they were only ideas. Yet they changed the world. So I don't think it is that simple.
- Negitivefrags 14y agoThe theory of gravity may just be an idea, but without execution it is still useless. Newton had to write a book to get his ideas out there and accepted.
