Why Great Ideas Get Ignored

one of the biggest ways that your idea can be seen as irrelevant is being dismissed as seen it, heard that, done that. And by the way, why don't you know that's already been seen, heard, and done before? Now I get it, sometimes people are a little bit nervous about going out and looking at and saying, what if I find that somebody has the same idea? Isn't it better that you figure that out than somebody looks at your idea and goes, why didn't they already know that was done? Personally, I would say yes. If it is something that somebody else has talked about in one way or another, by doing that little bit of sourcing, you can also Immediately answer and anticipate that potential objection by saying, and here's how it's different than what this person, that person, and this other person have already said.
