‘Nothing Destroys A Good Idea Faster Than A Mandatory Consensus’


“Nothing destroys a good idea faster than a mandatory consensus. The lowest common denominator is never a high standard.”

While it is important to listen to others, too much advice on how to make something more appealing usually involves dumbing it down quite a bit. If you really believe in your idea and what you want to accomplish, stick to your guns where it’s important.
