Ideas aren't Worthless

Ideas aren't Worthless

As an entrepreneurship and media educator, I used to say that ideas themselves have no value, they are worthless; everyone has ideas.

I recently realized that the above is not different from saying that plant seeds have no intrinsic value, which is not the case.

However, just like a business or a creative idea, a seed, as valuable as it "potentially" is, can only reach its potential under certain conditions and in the presence of all the required elements.

Ideas can indeed have a significant intrinsic value to them, but their value can and will only flourish when all requirements are met.

I still believe that:

  • If the idea's implementation can succeed just by knowing the idea, it's likely not a very valuable idea, and its market will get oversaturated in a matter of months, or even weeks.
  • If the successful idea can be replicated just by observing it from the outside, it will very likely have a very short-lived value. The opposite is true: If something is hard to replicate, even when well examined and studied, it will likely have a longer life while others play catch up.

EVERYTHING successful WILL be replicated by many. You can't stop replication attempts, but your decisions and practices can make it easier or harder to do so.
