One of the realities of innovation is that it takes time . . .
It takes time because we live busy lives. It takes time because unlike the inventors of 100 years ago who locked themselves in closets and came out with a prototype, we are working 60-80 hours and still trying to be innovative.
The key to innovation in our day is persistence. We cannot hope to have the time and focus of Edison or Einstein. Especially because we are talking about holistic innovation here. We are not only out there thinking grand thoughts but we are in the field working as well.
But if we take time and make many little steps, we can still see innovation happen. As we chip away at a problem - try this and try that - we will begin to see the bigger picture. It is then that the major innovation might just break through.
BE PERSISTENT!
