This man is amazing. He designed and constructed 5,127 prototypes, endured 14 years of debt and even ended up in court a few times. All in persuit of the perfect, bagless vaccuum cleaner.
James Dyson achieved what he set out to do and is now a multi-billionaire and designer/manufacturer of the world's best selling vaccuum cleaner.
One of his comments that really stuck out for me was, "Everyone has ideas. They may be too busy or lack the confidence or technical ability to carry them out. But I want to carry them out. It is a matter of getting up and doing it."
Take a look at Margaret Heffernan's article; James Dyson on Creating a Vaccuum Cleaner that Actually, Well, Sucks.
