Biz Stone is the co-founder of Twitter (follow Lemon Productions here) and had this to say in a blog post about the perceived overnight success of Twitter:
Timing, perseverance, and ten years of trying will eventually make you look like an overnight success. Surrounding yourself with smart people you like to work with helps immeasurably. We’ve got a long road ahead and I’m looking forward to another ten years.
In the online world, where virtual things seem to happen virtually overnight – it’s good to remember that success takes a lot of work, hard work and doesn’t really happen overnight.
