Ideas are responsible for the progression and prosperity of humans – without them we would still be living in prehistoric times. No idea is too small, and all sorts of ideas have potential to change the world as we know it for the better.
~~ Richard Branson
This is our last in Richard Branson's Top 10 Quotes on Ideas. I don't think it's one of his top 10, but instead his quote describing the concept of ideas for his quote series. To me, however, I believe this is in itself a great quote.
It's a valid statement as well. Without people having ideas and more importantly, acting on those ideas, humans would still be in the stone age. As we discussed yesterday in Earl Nightengale's quote, "Everything begins with an idea."
There is no idea too small. The smallest thing can have a big impact. Ignaz Semmelweis in 1847 after research to determine why the mortality rate after surgery was so high, found that surgeons weren't washing their hands after each surgery. He started encouraging doctors to wash after each surgery. That small thing resulted in the mortality rate dropping from over 18% to just over 2% the next year.
As Richard Branson goes on to say,
". . . and all sorts of ideas have potential to change the world as we know it for the better."
Do you have an idea? "What If" your idea lead to an amazing change. What If your idea changed the world for the better. "What If " your idea just made your or your families life better.
Today is the day to start working on your idea. Don't keep it bottled up in your head or in that notebook on your desk. Don't leave it in that Word Document on your laptop.
Go out today and make today a great day. . . for you and for the world!
