It’s what comes next that is so much more interesting - the point between taking that idea for a new application or service and actually expressing it in a real form. Building it. Prototyping it. That’s when your ideas are subject to limits (technical, execution, market, financial) and those limits actually test your theses and tenets. Prototyping shows you where your assumptions were wrong, maybe, and how your idea may be even better than you thought. Most importantly, it subjects your idea to numerous unanticipated constraints.
