I think it’s important to become obsessed with an idea and to continually critique and iterate it, to expand the vision and then shrink it down. To get lots of feedback and talk to everybody about how you can improve your idea, and assess how to make it most valuable to your customers. Even if you don’t implement end up actually implementing this idea you will learn a lot more by approaching ideas as if you are going to implement them. Doing this takes your head out of the clouds and forces you to approach problems in a very realistic and pragmatic way that many idealistic and impractical philosophers and academics fail to do while locked in their rooms and ivory towers.

(Expect an update to this theory sometime soon)
