A lot is been said and discussed about, Idea – Generation, Idea – Sharing & Idea Execution. Entrepreneurs take up an idea quickly but only those succeed who execute the idea well. I have been wondering lately – Is Having an Idea enough? There are times when ideas are not enough, focus is shifting, and there is lot of applause and less of support, no nuisance and lack of finances.

These are the times when doubt arises on ideas, on fate, on ambition, on vision. This is the time when focus tends to shift, path seems rift. As a result, we think of more & better ideas. Are we trying to ignore the root cause or may be a situation which needs to be dealt right now? Is that all the worry is about and we are just not getting enough of ideas!

This is the time when all we need is to keep us the 2 Fs of – Focus & Faith. Preserve them and nothing would go wrong. Lot of leaders & entrepreneurs has done that and most of times it worked. The latest being our World Cup Champion Captain, M.S.Dhoni. His ideas have been scanned, filtered & scrutinized a lot of times, he was always being cornered for any decision marked wrong, he too must have had felt jittery at times but what brought him here is Belief to win. He ignored all allegations, testing situations and kept the focus intact and he always all the time showed immense faith is doing the right things at right time. Results – we all know. We are all proud of Bleeding Blue for our men in blue. I believe the only idea he had was the Idea to Win.
It was not just a win of ideas. It was a win of lot many things. We need to have, a will to ideate; a focus to execute that idea and a faith to win. And we will win.

Entrepreneurship too, at times is like running a team who is working towards the same vision, chasing the same goal and sleeping through the same idea until it succeeds. Deviations are bound to happen, Situations will arise, People will leave & join, and Ideas will swim, drown & survive. Our job is to make it happen – how? In entrepreneurship, work should replace words and do the talking.

Often I felt speechless, wordless, and workless and often I wonder about – When Ideas are just not enough! And then I wonder what is lacking – the ideas, the will, the focus or the faith.
