✨This week, on one of our morning walks, my husband shared with me a story he’d seen about a young entrepreneur who started an appliance rental business with zero capital or investment and is now making great money.
He walked me through the whole journey from the spark of the idea, to the marketing, to the execution and at the end, he smiled and said, “What a brilliant idea!”
🤔I asked him, “If you didn’t know he was making great money… if you didn’t know he was successful… if you didn’t have the proof would you still say it’s a brilliant idea?”
✨You see, a “great idea” is simply an idea that’s been executed.
Yes, the numbers have to make sense on paper, but beyond that, it’s not the idea that’s brilliant. It’s the fact that someone took action.
Many people have great ideas. But most don’t turn into anything because they never get acted on. 🧠Our brains are naturally risk-averse. They’ll come up with every reason not to take that next step.
So maybe the truth is this: a great idea isn’t something you recognize after it works.
A great idea is one you realize one you give life to✨
What’s one idea you’ve been holding onto that deserves to be acted on today?
