Sucess is loving what you do
Today was the first day of the conference. And what a day it was. The quadrangle was packed with people and the line up of speakers did their absolute best not to let anybody down. One that gave an inspiring talk was Sahar Hashemi. Of course she had a good story to tell, but nonetheless a well delivered speech. Sahar founded Coffee Republic in London in 1995. A bold endeavor that brought coffee to a tea loving country. Besides telling the story about the rise of Coffee Republic she made an interesting remark on on ideas. She commented that unless you put your idea on paper it will not become tangible enough to work on. It connects well with what Nolan Bushnell said the other night at Qday. He said something along the lines of "any idiot can have an idea in the shower - but it is what happens next that matters". Ideas are good but implementation is the key.
