Big Doors / Big Opportunities Swing on Little Hinges

In everything that we do, there is some little amount of fear that we all have. This fear tries to show us that we won’t make it or something will probably go wrong on the way. This amount of fear is normal but there is always a way that we can control it.

In business most ideas that are born sound absurd in some way, they make the people who come up with them look as if they are going crazy but the fact is, if the idea doesn’t not sound absurd then there is no hope for it. There is a probability that the consumers will not go for it or there is a probability that almost everybody in the world knows about it and that makes it not that interesting and amazing.


The great entrepreneurs go for those drowning ideas, the ones that only he knows how he will go about it and make it all happen for him. Big business opportunities swing on little hinges meaning that good ideas may seem to have a lot of obstacles and challenges. You might have an idea that everyone is discouraging you on but you have your way to make it happen. That is what you should evaluate and go for.


A good idea is full of challenges and there is a high possibility that not anybody will support you simply because they have never heard of it. This is the good time to keep your secrets and ideas to yourself, when you go telling everybody about your ideas, all that you will find is opposition.


Treasure your ideas and make them work, it feels very good to bring up something that everybody else thought was drowning. Prove them wrong and prove yourself right. Great ideas experience the greatest number of obstacles. Think of Edison when he discovered electricity, he called people to dig up roads and pull buildings apart so that he could put his special wires. People were not unhappy with gas but most of them asked him how he felt after having lost ten thousand times but his reply was that him having failed ten thousand times had brought him ten thousand times closer to discovering electricity, he knew ten thousand things that he was not supposed to do.


What I am trying to say is no matter how many times you try something and it fails, there is always a way that you can do it and make it happen for you. So many challenges might come your way, so many people might discourage you and tell you how hard it is but you are the idea carrier and nobody can do it better than you should always know that.


It’s very easy to give up when you are almost done, most people give up when they are one step away from the victory, don’t be one of them. Work your way to the end. If you have a feeling that your idea will work then there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. That is the greatest feeling one can ever have. Ideas are born out of the need to change something. Make sure that all your ideas come to life so that you can change all that you were meant to.
