In a world saturated with A/B tests, focus groups, and the fetishization of “data-driven” everything, it’s easy to strangle a young idea in the crib. If you rush to validate too soon—before the idea has a coherent form, before you’ve given it the time and space to grow—you merely confirm that the infant cannot run a marathon. Of course it can’t. Greatness isn’t summoned by a hasty thumbs-up or thumbs-down. Instead, internalize the doubts as signals that more exploration is needed. Refine the concept, enrich it, feed it new inputs. Later, once it stands on its own feet, the world can judge its stride. But kill it too early, and you destroy something that never had a chance to prove itself.
