- andrewstuart 1y agoThe Winklevii might disagree. The concept that execution matters, ideas don’t, is complete rubbish. If it was true, then you’d make a fortune executing extremely well on selling bags of dog poo. Ideas are absolutely crucial. Without a good idea you can execute away forever and get nowhere. And you’ll need a really great idea to make it huge. Sure you also need luck timing hard work execution but none of that is worth a whit without a good idea. It’s strange that so many repeat this fiction that ideas are worthless, execution is everything.
- nathanappere 1y agoYou can just rephrase it as "an idea alone is worthless without proper execution" which is what is meant.
- cpursley 1y agoEveryone has ideas. Not everyone nails Timing + Execution + Distribution + Luck.
- yetihehe 1y agoEveryone has ideas, but not all of them are good ideas. Bad idea + nailing all the other ones won't give you good results.
- hnthrow90348765 1y agoGood execution and distribution require their own good ideas
