Book Post #2

After reading further in the book I have realized many new things about creating something. The book had a few really important quotes. It mentions that, “most ideas are born and die in isolation.” This concept was really interesting to me. Often I think people think that in order to be successful you have to hide your idea so no one can steal it. I think it actually is much more beneficial to share your idea and collaborate. If you don’t collaborate you lose the opportunity to gain someone else’s expertise. Another idea I took away was  “Today will never feel like it will be history, but it will. And more likely than not, you will look back and realize that you should have known.” What I took away from this was that when it comes to business you can’t expect to know what will happen. In business many things happen and you make decisions that you later look back at and realize that you wish you had done them a little differently in order to be at a better stage now.
