Description

Innovation Means Looking Weird. It hurts.


Innovation requires doing what others won’t.


If you’re truly creating something unique, be prepared to stand out, face skepticism, and look strange for a long time.


Convincing others? Forget it.


Instead, persist.


Keep pushing forward, and eventually, you’ll cross paths with someone who shares your vision and dreams.


Until that moment, it’s a lonely road, where most people will either ignore or reject what you’re doing.


Nobody will believe in your idea except you.


Your job isn’t to convince everyone—it’s to keep moving forward, even when you have no clue what’s coming next.


If you’re willing to endure the discomfort and stay true to your vision, you’ll eventually break through.


Or, at least you believe that.
