Power of Passion

How do ideas actually work Epiphanies and the successes that seem overnight are misleading because they are often sudden and surprising. They almost appear to originate outside of us and are extremely motivating.

Steven Johnson writes in the book Where the Good Idea Comes From about the eureka moment. Johnson discusses the new possibilities for emerging technologies such as neural networks (AI) or machine learning (ML). 

The HTML0 technology has opened new possibilities for creativity. Alan Turing may disagree. People are simply taking advantage of an existing technology that has been around for a long time and has only recently become possible to create a new application.
Another way ideas form is via what Johnson calls slow honches. They are usually influenced and shaped by something already in existence.
It is crucial to see how fresh ideas or epiphanies spring up in a wider setting.  Because of limited resources and brainpower people at the individual level often don't think up anything completely new. 
An aggregate sum of unconscious and subconscious processing, hopefully informed by education and collaboration, may eventually lead to an egg that is golden. It's possible to grow through combining these two realities.

The cost of failing  The failure rate is the best indicator of success.  Each entrepreneur must face the possibility of failure, and it's the only way to develop grit. 

The power grid Angela Duckworth is a psychologist. Her book Grit: Power of Passion, Perseverance and Grit was a huge success. Effort is often referred to as grit is key. "Without effort, your talent is nothing but unmet potential. If you don't put in the effort, you'll only accomplish what you've never done. "

An endless win  It's not enough to go viral. Simon Sinek helps entrepreneurs achieve realistic goals, be more patient and compassionate, and have greater success.

In The Infinite Game, he describes the goal of a lasting business to be centered on a "Just Cause": "A Just Cause must be: For something--affirmative and optimistic; Inclusive--open to all those who would like to contribute; Service oriented--for the primary benefit of others; Resilient--able to endure political, technological and cultural change; Idealistic--big, bold and ultimately unachievable.

Just causes seek to "change the world" or eradicate poverty. A just cause is one that is geared towards "change the world" or eliminate poverty.
