"Vision is the art of seeing things invisible."

I dabble in small, independent investments and as a result, meet a lot of entrepreneurs with new products and ideas. As you would expect, most do not warrant a second look while a very small number do.
Often these are ideas that most people initially reject; however, due to the entrepreneur's ability to see "things invisible", a few succeed.
How about you? Do you look for that which most cannot see?

I would like to, my company doesn't. We're too busy just trying to do what we do.
ReplyDeleteI know from my friends, this is true in their companies as well. No concern or thought about tomorrow.
I agree. While we were never that future oriented, we're even less so now after a lot of downsizing.
ReplyDeleteI worry that we're not focused on what we need to become. Too much about what we are.
Long ago I learned that the larger the corporate environment, the more stifling the bureaucracy. If you want to be work in an innovative company, find a small one; however, also know that just being small is not enough.
ReplyDeleteI agree Charlie but wonder if larger companies attract bureaucratic types, or makes people that when they go to work in larger companies?
