Don’t Reinvent The Wheel
My business partner and I met yesterday to do our monthly strategic planning session. This is good. We need these to stay focused and on task.
During our discussion one important point came up that I feel is blog worthy.
Jerry mentioned and I have to agree. Basically he said, we don’t want to reinvent the wheel. What we want to do is make it better. A lot of you reading this are probably saying…"no poop, that’s common sense."
I agree but sometimes in the heat of the battle we tend to over-complicate things.
I do it, you do it. Just admit it!
Sometimes the simple ideas are the best. And if you can use your experience as the foundation and take a look at technology, a process or a way of doing things and make it better, this can be enough to give you a competitive advantage.
oh yeah, and make you rich!
So, this morning I was preparing for a conference call and going through my email when I noticed an email update from a blog that I enjoy reading from time to time. The title of their post is called, "How To Improve Innovations."
Not only is the information sound but their style makes the information fun to read. Basically, their concept is to "innovate as you go." Here is an excerpt from the Trizle post:
Traditional innovators start something entirely new, and give themselves ridiculous disadvantages against those who already have massive head-starts.
The ‘innovate-as-you-go’ innovators build on top of their existing successes/strengths/wins — increasing their chances of innovative victories.
I recommend you read this post. Give yourself the opportunity to be successful.
