Berenguer is right. Having an idea isn’t the most important part of a business. Every business doesn’t end up with their same idea they started with. If it’s an idea you’re not passionate about, you’re not going to survive long as a business anyway.

I think in the business world, we get so caught up in trying to set ourselves apart that we forget the little things that go along with the business. It’s not a bad thing to be passionate about what you do to get started but, overtime it has to be tweaked and changed. No idea is perfect or long lasting. Your main focus should be how can I keep my idea and who do I need to help. Being that I like to be unique and creative, in my future endeavors I seek to change business tactics and strategies over time. I have so many ideas that could be used in some shape or form.

Instant MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
This is something I have never actually thought about. Any career path chosen is supposed to be based on your passion for it. You may not have the greatest idea yet to, for instance, impact your community yet, but your passion to do that will drive you. It will help you realize what your specific goal should be, and what you can do to make that impact. Also, what you thought you may have wanted to do in the beginning may change over time when you find out what other things can make a bigger impact.

INSTANT MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
Right, a perfect idea isnt always the most important thing when starting a business. Sometimes working on a least perfect idea can benefit the company even more. Working with people that you get alone with will not grow up but working with people that are the opposite of you, can develop different ideas and skills. Ideas are the basics of starting a project, people with good ideas need to find an interest in that idea.

INSTANT MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
This is an interesting point about how an idea is not the most important thing when starting a business. Honestly, I would think that it was the most important thing but as the author states, if you are not passionate about it and don't have the right strategic partners than your idea is pointless. When you find a need that is not being fit in society you have a great start for starting a business, but it also must be something that you are passionate about fixing. Without that passion, it is nearly impossible to withstand all the trials that will come your way.

Forming an idea is important but not as important as passion. The excitement of an idea will fade but passion doesn’t If you are passionate about something you will modify the idea over time to make it work at all costs because you want it to succeed.

INSTANT MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business I agree with the author when he says "A lot of people think the most important part of forming a business is the idea, but it's actually the least important." Some business ideas may not start out great but with time and hard work, the goals can be modified.

When you have an idea it is a great thing to be passionate about that idea and what it represents. If you are not passionate about the idea or the product it would make it harder to try and sell that item or to make the idea happen. You do not need to worry if your idea is perfect or not, even if it is not you can always make sure to modify it once you get settled and know that you are doing the right thing and that you are passionate about it.

This article has a valid point in how people shouldn't be stuck on having the perfect idea for a business early in its life. It usually won't be the final idea that the business takes and runs with. I would focus on having the right people around you that have skills opposite of you so you can be a well rounded business. It probably wouldn't hurt having people who think alike as well so that ideas can be formulated better. As I said before though do not take up too much of your time coming up with an idea for a business that is a diamond, instead come up with one quickly then start adding pressure to create a more profound karrot of diamond. Begin to play and manipulate that idea into something better as time goes on and as you and your business becomes more mature.

Instant MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
When a person decides to open a business for themselves the most important motivator can vary. Most people start businesses to earn a profit, and the only way to earn a profit in a competitive market is to be unique. Being unique does not necessarily mean being 'perfect', but the operation of any business must be perfect in order for the business to succeed. Therefore, I agree with the concept of this article however there are holes.

INSTANT MBA: A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
I never really put a lot of though into the topic of this article. Like most people I would have thought that the most important part of a business woudl be the idea. I can see now though that the idea is not the most important because it will constantly change throught out the life of the business. I also agree with the article about picking something your passionate about. If your not happy with what you're doing you will not put everything you have into it.

Nothing in life is perfect, therefore I do not understand why people would even try to start a business with a so-called perceived notion of a perfect idea. Draw your blueprint first, and follow it to the best of your abilities. Most people see success as a plan and a straight line to it but it is really the opposite. In order to be successful, one must face a lot of adversity. People should just focus on what they can control and let the rest fall in place.

INSTANT MBA : A Perfect Idea Is Not The Most Important Thing When Starting A Business
I liked this article. Pixable’s CEO Inaki Berenguer, says the idea in the beginning of starting your business is not that important and that it can change and form over time. The most important thing is your passion for the business and what it does for people. Also he says it’s important to pick a partner in your business who isn’t just like you but compliments you.
