The Only Road to Remarkable is through an Idea

It was unrealistic for the Wright Brothers to think they could fly.

It was unrealistic for Steve Jobs to think he could compete with Bill.

It was unrealistic for a student to create a site that would change the world.

A friend said, “everything we have now, was at one time unrealistic.”

From a video camera the size of your pocket, to a burger made without meat. These are all things that at one point and time someone thought wasn’t possible; not realistic. However, someone thought it was. Someone said, I don’t care if its unrealistic, I’m going to try it and if I fail – I fail.

We often have this assumption that a great idea just magically comes to lucky people. Wrong, these people aren’t lucky. They’re the ones who act on their ideas. If you want to do something remarkable think less and act more. And the moment one person calls you gutsy, crazy or unrealistic. I say to you,

Congratulations. You’re on the right road.
