When it can't be done - do it. If you don't do it, it doesn't
exist.
A new idea can be either unfamiliar, or silly, or both. It can
be judged by description, it needs to be done to exist. It's
unlikely that anyone will invest or sanction the cost of
something they don't understand, therefore you have no choice
but to do it yourself. You have to find a way to get it done
It's exciting. It's difficult and it's fun. If it was easy
anyone could do it. The film Citizen Kane is a very good
example. It was stolen not sanctioned Orson Wells couldn't find
any financial backers, but he raised a small amount for casting.
He begged, borrowed and milked people into building sets and
shooting full -blown screen test which eventually formed a third
of the film. Now it existed.
Backers could see what they were getting and he got the money.
Without him doing it when it 'couldn't be done' it would be
another in the endless list of ideas that never happened. Myles
Munroe says the wealthiest underground deposits are not the oil
fields of Arabia or Alberta, not the Natural Gas deposits of the
North Sea, it's not even the diamond mines of South Africa -
rather its cemeteries across the world. For in those graveyards
are books that were never written, art never painted, songs
never written, companies never started. In those tombs lies the
greatest wealth potential - ideas.
You have them every day - what will you do with yours? What
stops you from pursuing yours? Fear? Perhaps you are searching
for an idea - well think outside the box. If you can't think of
anything that hasn't been thought of already, then you need to
start playing by the rules.
The person who doesn't make mistakes is unlikely to make
anything. Benjamin Franklin said "I haven't failed. I've had
10,000 ideas that didn't work. Thomas Edison said "Of the 200
light bulbs that didn't work, every one of them told me
something that I was able to incorporate into the next attempt.
Theatre director Joan Littlewood said "If we don't get lost,
we'll never find a new route."
All of them understood that failures and false starts are a
precondition of success. It takes a positive attitude to make
mistakes well. Samuel Beckett said "Fail, Fail again, Fail
better!"
It's wrong to be right. Being right is based upon knowledge and
experience and is often provable. Knowledge comes from the past
and its safe. It is also out of date and the opposite of
originality.
Experience is found in solutions to old situations and problems.
The old situations are probably different from the present ones,
so that old solutions will have to be bent to fit a new
problems) and possibly fit badly). Also, the likelihood is that
if you've got the experience, you'll use it. This is lazy.
Experience is the opposite of being creative. If you can prove
you're right, you are set in stone. You cannot move with the
times or with other people. Being right is also boring and you
mind is closed. You are not open to new ideas.
Star being wrong and suddenly anything is possible. You are no
longer trying to be perfect. You are in the unknown, with no
clue as to what will happen, but there's more of chance of it
being worthwhile than if you try to be right.
Most people worry about suggesting stupid ideas because of what
others will think. Yes, it's a risky business - you can look
silly. Risk is a measurement of a person. Peple who won't take
them are trying to preserve what they have. People who do take
them often end up having more.
Let's dare to try new things, to aim high knowing that if we
miss - its ok... we are closer to something new that has never
been seen or heard of.
You should take a look at Internet Marketing, Forex Trading and
other crazy ideas that everyone will doubt and predict your
failure in. But its ok to try and fail... but what happens if
you don't fail? What would your life look like if you were not
afraid of the new, of being wrong or failing once again?
