It's a tricky balance, and there's a nonlinearity in that it really depends on what technical risk you've already taken on. Like.. clever ideas are like children. A handful are fine, lovely even! But if you have more than you can adequately keep track of or properly nurture that's no good. So best to focus attention on the small number of clever ideas that actually matter for your business--the ones that differentiate you from all the other companies doing broadly the same thing as you.
