An Idea Unshared… Or, How to Tell if You’re an Entrepreneur

How can you talk about that million dollar idea you have and protect it at the same time? What’s the value of an unshared idea?

The entrepreneur’s answers:

1. An idea unshared is worthless.

2. An idea so fragile it can be easily stolen by the next person you talk to isn’t a great business idea.

3. If you truly understood what it takes to execute an idea, you’d be a lot less worried about someone stealing it as you would be about pulling together the resources needed to make it a reality.
