As a student, summers were an opportunity to balance classroom smarts with non-school smarts. Real-world smarts via summer sports led me to being curious about street smarts. Street smarts was critical in starting up a small business at engineering school at University of Illinois, Urbana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

One the most advanced startup strategies is advocated by Stanford engineering. I summed it up in a 9 minute, 59 second video:<\/div>\n

Financial pressure and perceived pressure and pressure you place on yourself will hurt your execution. #ENGR145 used to be pressure packed.<\/div>\n

In short, #ENGR145<\/a> preaches pressure. Avoid the hard part about the hard parts cc @bhorowitz<\/a>. Sell downhill w\/gravity pic.twitter.com\/a5GZnZJcxx<\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Selling “downhill” is slang for ‘cross the chasm from the right’<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Relieve more pressure by pre-studying engineering 145 before you take #ENGR145. In addition to the 2 videos<\/a> that were 9 minutes 59 seconds, there are 4 books and 3 blog posts to study before you take Engineering 145<\/div>\n
ENGR 145 Equals \u201c4 books\u201d, \u20183 blog posts\u2019 and, \u201c2 videos\u201d<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
