Every path to success begins with a great idea. There's only one problem: Great ideas are a dime a dozen. What really matters when it comes to becoming a success is not having the idea but having the courage to transform that idea into reality. This usually means a risk of losing the security of a regular job and risking a steady paycheck. Only the brave ever overcome this first of the pitfalls.
每条成功之路都源于一个伟大的想法。唯一的问题是:伟大的想法遍地都是。对于成功而言,真正重要的并不是拥有这个想法,而是有勇气把这个想法变成现实。通常这意味着风险:失去稳定的工作,还有失去固定的工资。只有勇敢者才能越过这第一个绊脚石。
