It 's quite simple in my mind... now that I have some grey hair and seem to have made a number of mistakes and mis-judgments :
... If you have a great idea... it's bound to exist somewhere already... in some shape or size comparable
... but you'll never know... no matter how many market analysis you can do...
... so go for it if you believe in it...
... but keep to "bare bones"... "K.I.S.S" ... cut it down again and again..
... because Ideas are cheap... execution and delivery is the hard part...
... and history is only transcribed by those who "made it"... somehow... maybe not even the guy with the idea...
... so if you have a good idea... find the "perfect location" first... ... along with the "best and smartest team" to deliver...
... and go for it!
... "NDSs" are just to raise the "ante"... and if you can't defend it (with a lot of lawyers and time and money) the're not worth much
... or move on...
... till you can find an idea which you CAN in fact actually build... with what you have around you... with what YOU can pull together realistically
... but nothing new here... for those educated types (it took me a little longer to learn and admit to myself)
... just so damn hard to learn to do right!... and to keep clearly focused on when you are "in need"... "in a rush".. or have a family to support...
... good for the mind and spirit (maybe not body...) though!
Maybe in some grand and "holistic" way it's just about "balance and energy transformed"... into "things"... "results"... That approach is maybe for my next life...
Then of course you also have to ask yourself if the "goal" by which you measure things in the end or as you go... (assets, cash, titles... glory... peace of mind...) is the good one... and whether it all finally works in time enough... (now... next year... or by the end of time)... for the benefit of yourself... your family... or all?
Sky... thanks for the share you got me thinking again... about the big picture... not just about the "job", the "systems" or the "tools"...
Hugs to you both!

PS Makes me thing about this post and link I sent to the boys which "struck" me recently.
""Your word is your bond!..." Funny how that expression I just remembered sounds so timely in so many ways with so many meanings. How simple, how true."
and Link here which seems quiite "à propos" in my vague seaches for the phrase...
So maybe in the end the only thing that is important is YOUR Word... as in the beginning there was only your... VERBE... All other concerns derive from this. The question is can you make sense of it all.
