My work is very carefully researched. Sometimes I have to ditch an idea because I can't prove it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I often find that having an idea in my head prevents me from doing something else. Working is therefore a way of getting rid of an idea.
Sometimes the best, and only effective, way to kill an idea is to put it into practice.
My determination is not to remain stubbornly with my ideas, but I'll leave them and go over to others as soon as I am shown plausible reasons which I can grasp.
Every so often in life, you encounter a brilliant idea. Usually, at least in my case, it's somebody else's idea.
You need a stubborn belief in an idea in order to see it realised.
All you need do is listen to very smart people and sift out the ideas that are unworthy or implausible, and I wouldn't pretend for a moment that I hadn't made lots of mistakes and there are companies, perhaps, that we had been investors in.
My company and people think I'm wacky when I have an idea... I know if I have an idea, no one will want to go through it. But if I persist, people will go through it.
Over the years I have tried to develop something which is technically assured.
I do crazy amounts of research. I want this stuff to 'work,' so to speak. I need to be, at least to me, believable - because if I feel - if I cannot invest some element of verisimilitude, the reader is absolutely not going to buy in.
My 'work' is about seeing not about ideas.
