Building upon the myths of innovation:

The basic premiss is that innovations come in small increments not in an epiphany. So real innovators keep working hard on tough problems and eventually are rewarded by an occasional ah-ha moment.
Very true, Dave! The journey includes creative efforts and a variety of forces that affect the progress of innovation, such as technological, political, social and economic.
We may further distinguish innovation from creativity by considering the stages of success, such as early adoption, widespread success and how it may lead to the creative destruction of the technologies that were replaced.
