10 People You Are Most Likely to Meet in 2019 Around an IDEA

 #StartUP101 Even though our pathways might not be the same everyone goes through a process of actualizing an idea. At the center of any idea are the people you will meet either as partners, consultants, target audience, competitors, investors, staff etc.

 I believe that nobody is immune to generate ideas; the real game is in implementing of those ideas and seeing them through different phases. This thought process I have gathered reflecting back on the tournament idea I initiated back in 2011 dubbed Mathare North Festive Season Soccer Tournament currently in the 7th edition. Below are ten people you are likely to meet in your Start-Up journey;


  1.  Those who think the idea is great while also creating many hypotheses and do nothing about it. (Idea Generators). 
  2. Those who make great ideas happen. (The Doers / Change makers / Entrepreneurs). 
  3. Those who think they have unique ideas (Thinkers). 
  4. Those who think and work around finding even better ideas than what is currently in use. (Pacesetters / Innovators). 
  5. Those that goes with any idea (Yes team).
  6. Those that think that there are no great ideas (Perfectionist).
  7. Those who believe in the idea and do nothing (Cheer squad).
  8. Those that will look for meaningful partnership around the same idea (The Connector).
  9. Those who will invest in the idea (The Investor). 
  10. Those that will watch the idea evolve and claim credit. (The talker)


My biggest wish for 2019 is to connect more with action and result oriented personalities like some of you guys in 2018. You know yourselves, thanks for believing in the IDEA, and you played your part to MAKE IT HAPPEN. 1% IDEAS, 99% ACTION
