Life of an Idea!
???? ????????? ????????? ???? ???? ????? ? ? ???? ?????????????? ? ?????? ???????? That is how the life of an idea is described. Any idea is timeless and can manifest itself in many forms. And in each form, it will have its own path to glory. Its the person's attachment to it being a certain way that comes between the idea and it's actualization.
Look around you; some of the world-transforming ideas were not discovered by the present promoters; FB, YouTube etc had their worthy predecessors whose promoters' ego and attachment, to it being a certain way, saw their early demise only to be shared on the Teds as a would've been.
So the obvious lessons are to drop one's attachments to its timing, process and methodology in a certain way and one must keep trying using newer ways to actualise ideas. Off-course resources will be a constraint but your mind-work on an idea does not have any. So keep it alive in your mind and it'll find its way to its glory!!
