If you have a project, talk about it at every possible occasion

I’ve mentioned before that one of the most effective ways of moving a project forward, particularly in the early stages, is to talk about it on every possible occasion. If you share your vision and your hopes with just about everyone you meet it’s surprising how many will be able to offer concrete help as well as suggestions. They may also be able to introduce you to people who share a similar vision.

Sharing in this way also has the effect of making the project more concrete in your mind. As well as interesting and enthusing other people, you will succeed in increasing your own interest and enthusiasm. The questions other people ask you about the project will challenge you to work out the answers. Things which seemed very vague or even contradictory will quickly become more detailed and logical.
