Your great idea isn’t that great …

August 21st, 2010 Posted in My Idea

… if it doesn’t get executed.

That statement really apply to myself. I think I’m a good thinker, but somehow lack of the execution. I wasn’t notice anything about it at all until I reach a point in my life, which is “Getting a job.”

Nowadays, being a programmer since Grade 10 doesn’t really count if you don’t have a project that you can show off, or at least any open source project or contribution to the community. You need something to show off to that company that you’re capable, and skilled.

If you have great idea, make it real, or make it happen. Don’t just leave it die in your head or in your notebook as I do.

    Guy Kawasaki once said,
    “If you have a good idea, there are 5 people out there have the same idea as you. If you have a great idea, there 10 more people out there have the same idea.”

    What makes the difference? The success one makes the idea real.
