Making Ideas Happen
Edison famously said that genius is 1 percent inspiration, 99 percent perspiration. According to Belsky, the capacity to make ideas happen can be developed by anyone willing to develop their organizational habits.
"Ideas are easy. Implementation is hard. This book helps you with the hard part."
- Guy Kawasaki, author of Enchantment
According to productivity expert Scott Belsky, no one is born with the ability to bring creative projects to completion. Execution is a skill that must be developed by learning organizational habits and enlisting the support of your peers.
As the founder and CEO of Behance, a company whose mission is to empower and organize the creative world, Belsky has studied the habits of particularly productive individuals and teams in various industries. Now he has compiled the principles and techniques they share and presents a systematic approach to creative organization and productivity.
While many of us focus on generating and seeking out great ideas, Belsky shows why it's better to develop the ability to make ideas happen-a skill that endures over time.

Pros:
The book gives a great guidance on how to develop the right framework and the right structures in order for creative people to flourish and to have an impact in the organization.
Cons:
Some critics say that the book is thereby a bit dry and repetitive and basically proposes being more organized as the solution to every problem. Also, there are other books about implementing a more structured way of working, like for example “Getting Things Done by David Allen.
