Whether you have an epiphany sipping on your morning coffee or it hits you on your 8 a.m. commute to work, you're bound to encounter a bunch of ideas throughout the course of your life. The trouble with strokes of genius that are all your own – it can be tough to determine which ones are good and what ideas are destined to fail.
Next time you feel an idea coming on, write it down, then revisit it. Daniel Lubetzky,founder of KIND bars, told Inc Magazine that he shares his thoughts with colleagues, friends and trusted acquaintances to see if they're any good. These people are a great first line of defense. If everyone thinks you're making a mistake with your latest idea, it may be worth reconsidering.
On the off chance that you do go through with it and it still fails, make sure you take something away from the experience. Lubetzky explained to the source that he keeps his failed products around. That's why he still has a bottle of teriyaki sauce on display in his office.
