Because i think it is very difficult to execute. However, thanks for your blog. It may be a good idea, but don't like it much. Because i think it is very difficult to execute.

And you're right- Watson and Crick were working on the structure of DNA at the same time as Linus Pauling, but Watson & Crick are who we think of as the guys who unravelled the mysteries of the DNA molecule. In the end, it was a combination of their work based on what came before that led them to this discovery. Those who get the credit are those that do the work in the end. Thanks for stopping by!

Where would we have been if inventors and the great thinkers didn't build on the work of others? The Wright Brothers who are credited for inventing the airplane built on the work of Otto Lilenthal. Darwin built on the work of Malthus. I have a few books on the top inventions and inventors who changed the world and these people hardly ever started from scratch, instead they look at what has been done before and improve it. And you are right to say that "ideas are awesome, but execution is what matters in the end." Many people have great ideas but do not act on it, so these ideas become useless. And some people in different parts of the world come up with the same idea at the same time without knowing each other. Charles Darwin and British biologist Alfred Russel Wallace independently arrived at similar theories of Natural Selection in the mid-1800s after reading Essay on the Principle of Population by British pastor Thomas Malthus.
