M.V.P. (Most Valuable Property)

I would like to think that out of all the property a person owns in their lifetime, intellectual property would have to be the most valuable. For example, the ideas you have in your mind are worth something. They are waiting to be given life. The most fascinating thing about our ideas is their ability to outlive its creator--an idea that you bring to life today can help others years, decades and even centuries after you're gone. I often wonder what the pioneers of the aviation industry, the Wright brothers, would think if they were alive to see the jumbo jets and fighter planes we use today.

Ideas can also be inspiring.  Case in point, the smartphone. Think of all the businesses that emerged the moment a computer and phone merged as one. Entire industries and jobs have been created, solely off of inspiration from another individual's idea. So don't sell yourself short and discount the ideas you have. You never know what impact they may have on the world.

Be well.
