    There’s a maxim in the startup community that ideas are worthless. Tons of people have ideas. The value is in executing them. As a former entrepreneur I talked to a dozen people with a plan like “I have this amazing idea! You do it, then give me half the money!!” Uh, no. I’d rather work on my own plans, thanks.

      When I was writing, I stopped telling people about it because of this very thing. “You are the vessel that will birth my amazing book idea upon the world.” Like, naw, mate. You have fun writing that thing. I’ll write mine.
