2. 不要等待某一革命似的时刻，他永远也不会发生的。把注意力集中在普通的，现实，空白的空间，并且尽可能快速的执行
   
3. Share your idea. The more you share, the more you get advice and the more you learn. Meet and talk to your competitors.
4. 分享你的idea 分享越多，学校的经验越多。与竞争者一起争论。
   
5. Build a community. Use blogging and social software to make sure people hear about you.
