Empty Pockets: Great Ideas

Tweet

Norman Vincent Peale said: “Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.” Many times, persons have great ideas, but because of the lack of money, they hesitate to pursue the success that could come from their ideas. “Where there is a will, there is a way.” That’s another popular saying that has been around for a long time. I’m not sure who said it first, but it’s been repeated over and over again in motivational seminars for years. If you have an idea that you think is worth pursuing, try to find someone to back you. It’s not impossible. There is now this show on TV here in the USA called “Shark Tank.” Investors allow persons to come on the show with their ideas, in search of financial backing. I’ve watched it a couple times and while I think it’s a great idea, I’m a little put off by the attitudes and comments of the “investors” and their arrogance. I think that there are many persons who struggle with finding a way to introduce good ideas to the world and it would be a good thing if there were a better way to be recognized for a person’s talent or invention. What do you think?
