Yeah Mike,
you need to selectively share ideas so that other people share their ideas with you. Sometimes you might even find that they’re building something similar to you

Ok dude I’m going to take a hard-arsed approach here. First up, if you share an idea but aren’t quick enough to capitalise on it yourself and someone else does, tough luck. If you share it in ‘confidence’, fair enough, but it’s a free market where it’s survival of the quickest. Just ask Vincent Maher.

I have shared ideas in the open and watched them flutter away from me. That’s life. If someone does you in and has been unethical, the wheel turns and they will get their due.

But sharing is definitely worth it. If I’ve been successful at all it’s because of my willingness to share and collaborate. Or maybe I’m wrong, in which case I’d love to hear about it from those who feel that way.

So, my challenge to you bru: name some names dude!
