Every day, in every place in the world, someone is saying (or just thinking of) they have a great idea. Sometimes they tell their friends over drinks that they have this brilliant scheme that would make the world a better place...or make them money. I even find that I have an UN-ending supply of people that have ideas they think I should do!
The world doesn't have a shortage of good ideas. The world has a shortage of people that are willing to take action!
As Seth Godin points out all the time, since the economy has changed, we need people that are brave enough to "choose themselves."
The bad news, for those waiting for someone to choose them, is life has gotten a lot harder. The economy has changed and there are fewer jobs like that. The good news is--in today's economy--it is much simpler to choose yourself!
It's much easier, more cost efficient and accessible to take the "idea" and make it happen.
So if you have an idea that you have always wanted to try...try it. If you have a business that you have always wanted to start...start it. If you are waiting for someone to give you a job...create it yourself.
The REALLY good news is, there has never been a better time.
