Ideas vs Execution

Ideas are dime-a-dozen. It's execution that matters.

Ideas are worthless, executions are everything. In that case you'd have little trouble telling us your idea and what's different about your execution.

Ideas are cheap, don't let that discourage you - implementation and execution is what makes something great.

But, don't you know? Ideas are cheap! It's all about execution! /s

Yet another example that having ideas is worth close to 0, while being able to execute on your own or others ideas is worth > 0 :)

"Ideas are worthless, execution is everything" means that with high probability everyone who can execute already knows your ideas.If your idea isn't good enough for you to work on it, why would it inspire anyone else?

I don't think I've ever heard people say that ideas are entirely worthless. Good ideas have enormous potential value.The argument is that, in general, unlocking this potential requires great execution. You can't (in general) make a good idea successful without it. You can, on the other hand, take bad or boring or tired ideas and make them successful with great execution.So, great execution (in general) matters more than great ideas.

A lot of fantastically great ideas seemed like terrible ideas until they were executed. That is why a lot of people say that ideas are cheap, execution is what has value.

Ideas are worthless, execution is everything.If you want to prove your idea is worth something, execute on it.

Ideas are worthless, it's the execution that matters.
