The most valuable resource in the world is not
found in the ground, as gold, diamonds, and oil; it
is, and will always be ideas in the minds of
people, when harnessed properly. Some of the
most valuable companies, in the world today, like
Alibaba (China), Facebook (USA), Google (USA),
are less than 15 years old, and yet each one of
them is worth much more than some of the
biggest resource companies like Anglo American
(SA), BHP (Australia), which were built over 100
years.
Companies like Apple, Alibaba, Google, and
Facebook, are not built on natural resources, but
harnessed ideas, better known as innovations.
The amount of cash held by the top four tech
companies, like Apple, Google, and Samsung, is
more than all the economies of Africa, as well as
all the economies of Latin America.
I believe that each one of us, has the capacity to
come up with "witty inventions", which can
dramatically improve the lives of millions, whilst
at the same time creating wealth for our nations.
You might have an idea, for something
completely new, or you might have an idea to
improve something that exists, or you are
working and have an idea to improve a process,
or solutions that can make your organisation
more profitable, or efficient.
Many people do not know what to do when they
have an idea, particularly one with which to start,
even a new business. And this is what I want to
talk about, in this post:
The first thing, you must have is respect for
ideas, and to value ideas.
In business when an idea has been harnessed
properly, we call it, Intellectual Property (IP).
Never steal or misuse other people's ideas,
particularly when they are protected by patents,
and Trade Marks, Copy writes, or Trade Secrets,
measures.
When you have an idea, which you think is a new
innovation, or even invention, don't go around
telling everyone you meet (including your
friends), this is like leaving your wallet on a bar
counter, to go to the toilet!
Discretion, discretion, discretion....!!!
There are people who will even go on my
Facebook site, and share their idea, with 3m
people, who read my posts:
Let's say that they are very generous!
Some people prepare detailed, documents and
send them to third parties, whom they think can
help them. If you do that you will end in tears,
and you probably don't deserve any sympathy!
So what do you do, if you have a new innovation,
or business idea?

ok

Ideas are nothing. Toilet paper has more value than an idea. Execution is everything. Get all the ideas in the world and you can still wallow in obscurity and poverty.

Ad hominem speaks about attacking a person character instead of attending to the argument

But I just asked what is there to execute if there is no idea...well I don't know what your defination of an idea is anyway
