“The first lesson, of course, is to be very careful not to allow the Discouragement Fraternity to put a damper on your ideas, your dreams, or your vision. Second, there’s gold in old — old ideas, old movies, old TV shows, old books — things that have been around forever. In fact, if a service or product has hit bottom, it might just be the perfect time for an entrepreneur with vision to revive it, recast it, and create a whole new industry in the process. Third, and perhaps the most important lesson of all, the key is not whether an idea, product, or service is old or new, but how well someone executes it. Or, as my dad said, ‘It’s all man and method.'”
