27 Brilliant Quotes for Entrepreneurial Innovation


Bangalore: Without the craving to do something good and something new, the entrepreneur’s work is completely lifeless. An idea drives the enterprise to its success. But, Innovation, a word used quiet often in the world of entrepreneurship and startups has lost its meaning in the course of time due to excessive usage in various contexts.

What does Innovation really mean and how important is it? Business Insider has compiled a list of 27 creative minds and their insights about creativity.

Here are the quotes from some of the most brilliant minds in the world that every entrepreneur should read.

1. Mark Zuckerberg

CEO, Facebook

"We used to write this down by saying, 'move fast and break things.' And the idea was, unless you are breaking some stuff you are not moving fast enough. I think there's probably something in that for other entrepreneurs to learn which is that making mistakes is okay. At the end of the day, the goal of building something is to build something, not to not make mistakes."

 

2. Lady Gaga

Performer and Artist

“The most important thing about creativity is that you honor your creativity and you don’t ever ignore it or go against what that creative image is telling you. Last night I was lying in bed and I had an idea for an outfit and I just made myself get up and sketch it real fast then went back to sleep. I think it’s when you say 'I’m too tired I have to go to bed' is when creativity stops coming. If God calls you, pick up the damn phone.”

 

3. Steve Jobs

Former CEO, Apple

"Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It's not about money. It's about the people you have, how you're led, and how much you get it."
