Picture your mind as a gold mine site, where you can explore for the precious metal. You dig deep through muds, water, rocks, and landfill.
Naturally, before going to dig for gold, you know what it looks like therefore you know what you are looking for (trying to manage and commercialise acquired IP or not understanding the nature of your business original Intellectual Property could be a waste of effort). In reality, people are not always aware of the unique identity of gold, diamond or any precious metal for that matter, with this fact, it is safe to assume most businesses are not aware of the raw form of their intellectual property asset and how to make it tangible.
One can easily step on a rough looking gold and mistake it for an ordinary rock likewise you may have a eureka moment that could lead you to ownership of a precious IP asset but easily disregarded or discouraged by reducing it to a regular thought.
The good thing about Intellectual Property is that the raw material (ideas) is abundant, unlike gold. Therefore, every individual has an unlimited gold mine.
Intellectual property essentially is the mining of the mind. A person will mine their mind or soul as the case may be - for a creative solution. Now at this point, the result of the "eureka moment" is not yet a full-blown Intellectual Property but already can be classed as an intellectual asset because once you expose an idea to the market, it becomes a commodity of some sort. However, there are so many variables in the market that are going to influence how tangible your Intellectual Property will be.
