In the mobile internet age, the secret to succeed is to find the right direction and then all in. — CEO, Fu Sheng
Where to find right direction
You need to pay attention to where investors are investing, where people are paying attention to, and if that direction matches your own vision, then all you need to do is ALL IN.
The other way to predict trends is to follow industry leaders. Lei Jun, CEO and founder of XiaoMi, is a good example. Creating a business from scratch is like climbing a mountain. Lei Jun is standing much higher than other people in the mobile industry right now. The vision and world that he witnesses is surely much wider and further than ours. Therefore it is worthwhile to study him, and study how he manages his company, and where he is leading his company to. Having an insightful strategy can save you many troubles that you would otherwise encounter.
