This reminded me of Richard Branson (the Virgin guy) and a post by James Altucher. I think James' point is that to do something huge, like start a new airline, you always have to find the next step. Pretty basic really, break a big task into smaller pieces. But worth a read nonetheless, it really goes into OP's question. "Q: How do you know when you’re thinking too big or aiming too high (if that’s even possible)?" "A: In the mid-90s I had an idea that lasted about the amount of time it takes to drink two beers. I say this because I had the idea at a bar and it was quickly squashed by the two friends I was with (...) My real problem was: I didn’t have confidence. And I didn’t know what the next step was. In retrospect, I should’ve written down my idea, written down ten ideas for possible shows to launch with, and started pitching TV companies to get someone to partner with me on it. That would’ve been simple and not taken too much time before there was some payoff." http://www.jamesaltucher.com/how-do-you-know-when-youre-thinking-too-big-or-aiming-too-high-if-thats-even-possible/ http://www.jamesaltucher.com/how-do-you-know-when-youre-thin...
