Imitation is the highest form of flattery
Next time people steal your ideas or copy your concepts, be proud!
People using your ways and methods is the highest form of compliment you will ever get!

Get your ass up
Good ideas are not adopted automatically. They must be driven into practice with courageous patience.
Hyman Rickover
Having great ideas and a brilliant mind is awesome. Wasting this by not acting accordingly is not, don’t go there!

Write that down!
Get your ideas on paper and study them. Do not let them go to waste!
Les Brown
Don’t risk forgetting awesome ideas. Keep a notepad at your bed, keep a notepad in your pockets, always have something to write on.
Trust me, you won’t regret it, always have something with you that you can write onto by hand

Don’t ask people what they want
I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.
Wayne Gretzky
This goes perfectly together with Henry Ford saying that if he had asked the people what they wanted, they would have asked for faster horses.
Don’t ask people what they want because in most cases they simply don’t know it themselves. Of course this is not about being an asshole and doing whatever you want, but if you want to create something you should not always listen to people giving you their demands but you should feel free to make something that feels just good.
Without this attitude there would be no cars, no light-bulbs, no iPod, no iPad, nothing brilliant or excellent.
