I think the point is less about whether your idea is smart or stupid... that detail is irrelevant. What is important? Action is important. You are better off

What is important? Action is important.
You are better off pursuing a stupid idea than not pursuing any ideas.
- watwut 12y ago"You are better off pursuing a stupid idea than not pursuing any ideas." How much does it cost to pursue that bad idea? If it is for free, then you are right. If it costs to pursue that idea, then you might have been better off pursuing nothing.
- davemel37 12y agoif by cost you mean the potential gain minus the potential loss, than you might be right. However, if you mean cost without factoring the potential gain from failing (and ignoring benefits like "an object in motion tends to stay in motion") than I would have to disagree. You are much better off taking action on a bad idea than guaranteeing failure by never taking action.
