I have realized that the key to successful innovation is to have one main break through and then not have a day job. I have come to realize that people who have discovered amazing things or invented something equally as amazing usually were well off or rich. They had the time and leisure to sit around and think about things all day. They had the time to ponder, experiment and build expensive prototypes. The common person doesn't normally have this kind of opportunity. If they were to try this, they would need a grant or loan to get started. This usually means giving up your day job.
The other ways to be successful in innovation is if you are developing something that deals with your daily work. Or if you are a business owner. Or just a rich bastard. If you are coming up with ideas during your work period, then you are lucky. If you are a business owner, then chances are at one point you can probably sit down and think about how to do something. If you are a rich bastard, then you have all the time in the world to do what ever. If you don't have any of those opportunities, then you are screwed.
