Start of the second week at TetuanValley, and there are no signs of slowdown. Like the Spartan Agoge, the pace has proved to fast for some, and two teams just could not continue.
I know that those of us that remain are strengthened, you could tell just by watching the presentations. Where our first pitches were vague, after one weeks work on the project and @Alex Barrera's special mojo/coaching/advice I was actually exited by the project presentations this week. I understood their vision, and the project.
I believe the hardest thing about giving your pitch is realizing that people don't share your vision, not because they don't want to, just because you haven't explained it correctly. You're too close, the project is your baby and you take for granted too many things. So take nothing for granted. If you're exited by what you're doing, don't be afraid to show it, just make sure to tone down the technobabble...
