And that's when the Eureka comes. That's when the good ideas come.
那是要有所顿悟或灵感出现为前提的
It's actually after a good night's sleep. It's after "we do nothing for a while". It's when we in the shower.
这些灵感来自一夜好觉之后,或是充分休息一段时间之后,或是在洗澡过程中
The next important thing, component of this model is the evaluation part.
下一个重要因素是这个模型的组成部分是评估部分

人有很多好的想法但极少数是可以有好成果最终成为经商的好点子
or a good idea for a scientific paper, or a book, or whatever it may be.
或成为科学论文或书籍的好构思,或其他任何有作为的东西
That's when the evaluation comes and that's when the elaboration comes.
