I truly appreciate the being patient part. I also appreciate the message of doing research. Sometimes the research isn’t always online, but talking to prospective clients. And, then, the trick is to be able to shift quickly if you’ve discovered there’s no chance of being successful in that area.

I love your comment, “If you don’t do the research, the research will end up finding YOU!” So very, very true! And, creative types getting carried away?? Say it isn’t so!

I love this story. The first partnership. I was not expecting what would come next. I think what I experience with the great idea syndrome is the anxiety attack. What comes first and it has to be done now or it won’t get done. Usually that ends up with it won’t get done because I’ve flooded my brain with an insurmountable task of “todo’s”, it just looks like one big pile. So it is easy to do everything but the research. It’s easy to think we know it all because the dream is so big and so wonderful. The real work for me is to consider what it takes to do the work and then decide is it worth my time and effort. It is after all my dream. I can step into it. …consider the work through research and if it’s not something I’m willing to commit to because the task is daunting or unrealistic…I could always step out of the dream and move on to something else.

Thanks for the article. It’s great food for thought.

Sincerely,
Ramona

Reminds me of a poor guy on Shark Tank who had been trying, for 12 years to get his product off the ground. The sharks ate him alive. I love your mention of patience too. It’s something I struggle with weekly. Thanks for the great post, Wendi!

Creative ideas do not, necessarily, a business make. Thank you so much.

Hahahahaha and so incredibly apt! I love the image of you and your first business partner totally jumping on that fantabulous idea to make “kamillions”! It’s so true that we creative types can get a little carried away… Research is so key. As I found out, if you don’t do the research, the research will end up finding YOU. Dig into those keywords, right?? Thanks for writing this one, really great!
