I’m practically always thinking of ideas in a variety of industries (if that’s the right term in this case). Whether one idea is better than another can be debatable but the important part is making that idea come to life. First I must say that not all my ideas are spectacular - same applies to everyone. There are pros and cons to nearly everything so you have to pick your battles.
My ideas have varied from poor to excellent. Simetimes they’ve been based on a simple, quick thought while other times I’ve specifically put effort into creating the idea based on something I saw/heard about. The bright side is the ideas I’ve implemented have been “successes” (at least in my opinion). No, not all of them, but the majority of them fall into that “success” category.
So how do you know when an idea is worth implementing? Honestly there is no direct answer to say “Yes, this idea is worth it” in most cases. Instead it’s based on your beliefs, time, efforts and fortitude which decide whether the idea will be valueable. Do you believe in yourself? Are you passionate for success?
People say they have some great ideas but they never implement them. Why not? Is it a fear of failure? Unsure about developing the idea? Too pricey? In my opinion, these are excuses and make those ideas valueless. You can’t put a value on an idea until you have a way of measuring that value. A simple way to help determine if an idea might be worthwhile (if you’re unsure of yourself) is to write up a brief but good NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement), contact some of your trusted friends and/or peers asking if they’d be willing to give their opinions on your idea, have them sign the NDA, and then you explain what it’s all about. Doing it this way could help alleviate the anxiety you’re facing.
Those that know me best would say I try to be positive and get excited about progress (as well as ideas). If you can’t drive yourself to success in fulfilling your ideas, then you should forget about it in the first place.
Have a great day!
