Scott Belsky

Banyak orang kreatif yang mempunyai banyak ide, tetapi hanya sedikit dari mereka yang bisa mewujudkannya. Banyak orang brilian dalam menciptakan ide baru, tetapi mati langkah ketika harus menjalankannya. Akibatnya, banyak proyek yang menjanjikan inovasi terbaik di masa depan berhenti di tengah jalan. Lupakan obsesi untuk menemukan ide hebat yang baru, mulailah mengembangkan kemampuan untuk mewujudkannya, sebuah kemampuan yang akan bertahan selamanya. Berdasarkan wawancara dengan ratusan orang kreatif yang produktif, Scott Belsky memberikan panduan agar Anda melangkah dengan berani mewujudkan ide-ide Anda. Anda tidak perlu menjadi genius untuk bisa melakukannya. Temukan contohnya dalam buku ini dan ketahui alasan mengapa para pemilik ide tersebut berhasil, sedangkan banyak orang tidak. Buka buku ini, bermain-mainlah dengan kiat-kiatnya, dan temukan jalan untuk membuat ide menjadi nyata. [Mizan, Noura Books, Nourabooks, Ide, Gagasan, Motivasi, Hidup, Karir, Indonesia]

Making Ideas Happen

How the world's leading innovators push their ideas to fruition again and again Edison famously said that genius is 1 percent inspiration, 99 percent perspiration. Ideas for new businesses, solutions to the world's problems, and artistic breakthroughs are common, but great execution is rare. According to Scott Belsky, the capacity to make ideas happen can be developed by anyone willing to develop their organizational habits and leadership capability. That's why he founded Behance, a company that helps creative people and teams across industries develop these skills. Belsky has spent six years studying the habits of creative people and teams that are especially productive-the ones who make their ideas happen time and time again. After interviewing hundreds of successful creatives, he has compiled their most powerful-and often counterintuitive-practices, such as: •Generate ideas in moderation and kill ideas liberally •Prioritize through nagging •Encourage fighting within your team While many of us obsess about discovering great new ideas, Belsky shows why it's better to develop the capacity to make ideas happen-a capacity that endures over time.

Overcoming the Obstacles Between Vision and Reality

Lots of good info, but if you've read alot of these types of books (Linchpin, The War of Art, Deep Work, Getting Things Done, etc) it's much more of a review than anything new and revolutionary.

Counsels professionals on how to develop creative ideas into productive and profitable ventures, explaining a range of effective and occasionally counterintuitive practices based on moderation, prioritizing and encouraging conflicts.

I really enjoyed the way this book bypasses the ideas stage and heads right into how we can make those ideas a reality. I also enjoy the approachable writing style of Belsky - it makes it seem as though he's truly there to help us, not preaching nor coming at it from a pedestal. I think some of the information is somewhat common sense, but overall it's a well organized book that you can refer back to time and time again as you get stuck on projects.

some interesting take aways but a good deal of fluff. Worth skimming and pulling out some useful points to try out.

Thomas Edison famously said that genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration. Every day new solutions, revolutionary cures, and artistic breakthroughs are conceived and squandered by smart people. Along with the gift of creativity come the obstacles to making ideas happen: lack of organisation, lack of accountability and a lack of community support. Scott Belsky has interviewsed hundreds of the most productive creative people and teams in the world, revealing one common trait: a carefully trained capacity for executing ideas. Implementing your ideas is a skill that can be taught, and Belshy distills the core principles in this book. While many of us obsess about discovering great new ideas, Belsky shows why it is better to develop the capacity to make ideas happen - using old-fashioned passion and perspiration. Making Ideas Happen reveals the practical yet counterintuitive techniques of 'serial creatives' - those few who make their visions a reality.
