Successful people rarely follow in the footsteps of others.  They make their own tracks!  Some of the best risks you can take are the ones where you rethink the rules of the game.  Break rules and conventions on a daily basis.  You will likely generate enthusiasm by enacting new ideas.  Those who prefer the safety and comfort of staying inside the box might discourage you, but don’t let them stop you from perusing an idea you know in your heart is a winner.  These same people will likely come to you in the future for new ideas when they are sick of looking at the same 4 familiar walls.

“The value of an idea lies in the using of it”.
– Thomas Edison, quoted in the Louisville Courier-Journal, reprinted in the week      magazine.
