great idea

i talk to entrepreneurs all the time. when you ask them - what made them give up a comfy lifestyle at a large company for something so risky, they always say the same thing. it was such a great idea, they couldn't pass it up. i have one of those ideas right now. i've had ideas before, but i could always see a reason not to do it. doing the preliminary market research, it would be a somewhat untapped market with huge growth potential. i also happen to know all the right people and i have the right skills and experience to make it work. i can't find a good reason not to do it.

i need to make it happen. i can't pass this up. it keeps me up at night, thinking of all the paths the business could go into. each path only excites me more because i see so much promise with this. i'm continuing to let it marinate in my head to make sure i don't find any faults that i can't overcome. it's strange how suddenly and how quickly it all came about. one day it just all "clicked", the light bulb turned on above my head and it's only glowing brighter as each day passes.

*thinking*

That's awesome. What sucks is you can't really talk about it with colleagues to brainstorm potential problems... but that's what makes it exciting too. Mel in stealth mode!

haha, i did have an idea involving a frozen treat. but i gave that idea away to someone else who i think would enjoy it more than i would.
