I think even more important is having the business sense to identify which ideas can be accomplished given that person's available resources and capital. Often times people work so hard at these impossible goals and never really accomplish anything.

That's why I think motivation will only take you so far and people who rely solely on their 'motivation' are not much different than people who dig ditches. There will always be ditches that need digging, but at the end of the day, all you did was dig a ditch.

If you have a good enough idea, other people will do the work for you. That's where skills and brains come in. People who have neither overlook that and rely solely on motivation, which can only take them so far.
