Scott Belsky’s book, Making Ideas Happen, is centered around Thomas Edison’s famous quote that Genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration. Scott writes with a fondness towards the creative professional, and this book is a tool to help take the constant ideas we have from inception to reality.

For many of us there seems to be no shortage of ideas, only a shortage of the time and recourses needed to execute those ideas. Scott lays out several key strategies for turning ideas and concepts into something realized.

This is one of the few books that I have gone out and bought multiple copies of so I could give them away. I highly recommend it to anyone with a creative, entrepreneurial, or otherwise adventurous bend towards life.
