0001. There is
an old saying that if you try to please everybody, you end up pleasing nobody.
0002. If you
wait until the conditions are right, you will never move forward.
0003. When we proceed
with a goal, we seldom have all the information we need or have the ideal
conditions.
0004. To make
successful products is easy. Keep in mind to make them 1) simple, 2) elegant,
and 3) robust.
0005. In
lives, only changes are certain, learn to live with changes, e.g.
offices, love, feeling, etc. and to cope with them calmly.
0006.
Successful ideas are seldom made at the first instance. They need adjustments
when it is seen fit, making them better.
0007. If you
do something that stands out, you risk failure. But, if you don't stand out,
you practically can guarantee failure.
0008. If you
need to convince others, and words are not enough, show them what you can do.
0009. Try to
establish an apparent one-to-one relationship. This will win your followers;
this is personal connections.
0010. No one,
single solution can solve all problems.
0011. A larger
number of samples need to be taken for a more accurate average, statistically.
