Some ideas stick.
Some ideas burn.
The most lethal ideas stick and burn at the same time. They are ideas like napalm in your mind.
When trapped in the mind, they become the ideas that consume. These are the ideas that become obsession. They destroy. Life becomes a smoldering pile of ash with the glowing ember of the idea at the center, threatening to erupt into a conflagration all over again.
The only answer is to unleash the idea. There is a subtle line, almost imperceptible, at the border between obsession and commitment. The only thing that distinguishes those who lie in the blackened ruins and those who survive and thrive in the heart of the fire is the courage to set the idea free, to loose it upon the world.
The idea will destroy when left bottled up. If the passion is strong enough to ignite, then the idea deserves to be free. It deserves to spread. It deserves to stick and burn anyone willing to come close enough to it. Let them catch the fire of your idea and spread it again. Farther and farther from the center. Let the fire burn.
If you are committed, your ideas will stick.
If you are committed, you ideas will burn.
Your most lethal ideas stick and burn at the some time, and they can only do so when you are there, fully present, prepared to set the world on fire.
Your best ideas are like napalm in your mind.
