There is a saying that “It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to always be right by having no ideas at all.” The purpose of the saying is to show us that utmost importance should be attached to innovation and creativity.

To begin with, an attitude of innovation could be said to be the watchword, or motto of science. For example, before a new type of medicine or vaccine is developed, innumerable times of scientific experiment, laboratory tests and live trials must be carried out. In addition, innovation is also responsible for many of today’s business successes. For instance, I personally worked with such a company. It was only after four years and four different tries of varying business models that the entrepreneur finally made his mark, and became the chairman of one of the largest Internet companies.

To sum up, in any field of endeavor, whether it be medicine, engineering or business, it is necessary to first put great emphasis on innovation before one can finally meet with success.

参考译文

有一句话是这样说的：“有足够多的创意，哪怕其中有一些是错的，也比毫无想法的永远正确要好”。这句话的目的是告诉我们应该充分重视创新。

首先，创新的态度可以说是科学研究的信条。例如，在研发出新药物或新疫苗之前，一定有无数次的科学实验、实验室检测和活体试验。其次，创新也是当今许多企业能够成功的原因。例如，我本人曾在这样一家公司工作过。这家公司的创始人尝试了四种不同的商业模式，历经四年才取得成功。后来他也当上了一家最大的互联网公司的董事长。

总之，在任何领域，无论是医学、工程还是商业，一个人必须首先重视创新才能获得最后的成功。
