Design Patterns like Facade, The Singleton etc is what you expect right. Well no.
This one was different. This lecture was more motivational and the key takeaway for me was the importance of an idea.
Everything starts with an idea...and you need to be able to describe it in its simplest form

An idea is what motivates us. It is what makes us do what we do and work harder for it. An idea by itself may not be worth much as the speaker presenting on this said (Sorry not too good with names :( ) but it, surely, is what drives us to go the extra mile, work sleepless nights and, a the same time, have fun seeing the idea take shape into something tangible. Great ideas might be a dime a dozen these days but people who strongly believe in their ideas are not. It is nice to see a congregation of such people in a class.
Express yourself...and share your ideas??
So now I have a great idea. Should I share it with others or should I not. Well there doesn't seem to be one correct answer. It isn't binary like Prof Ben said when he asked for a show off hands. However, from the discussions yesterday I feel it is imperative to validate our ideas with a few trusted friends or a mentor so that we can get that extra confidence before delving into the melee so to speak and this confidence is absolutely essential as only those who believe in their ideas 100% are capable of putting the necessary 120% effort to make it work.
Well, these are just my opinions. Our team is still looking for that great idea for our fb assignment. We have quite a few in mind and have narrowed it down and hopefully we can nail it by tomorrow.
"Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks; right in there somewhere"
