保罗·格雷厄姆：创业之前·第4则
保罗·格雷厄姆《《创业之前》》· Before the Startup · 行动 · 领导 · 人性 · 财富
But the total volume of worry never decreases; if anything it increases. Starting a successful startup is similar to having kids in that it's like a button you push that changes your life irrevocably. And while it's truly wonderful having kids, there are a lot of things that are easier to do before you have them than after. Many of which will make you a better parent when you do have kids. And since you can delay pushing the button for a while, most people in rich countries do. Yet when it comes to startups, a lot of people seem to think they're supposed to start them while they're still in college. Are you crazy? And what are the universities thinking?

白话
创业就像生孩子，按下按钮后生活将不可逆转地改变。虽然生孩子很美好，但有些事在生孩子前做更容易，而且这些事会让你成为更好的父母。既然可以推迟，大多数富裕国家的人都会选择推迟。然而，很多人却认为应该在大学期间创业，这很疯狂。大学应该是探索和积累的时期，而不是匆忙创业。推迟创业，先做一些能让你成为更好创始人的事。
