Build a sustainable business that can help YOU accomplish your goals.
Think of “a factory of business ideas”, not “the one right idea” 👨🏻🏭
Don’t start with a big idea - implement your best current ideas with current starting capital and bigger ideas will come.
How can you launch your own idea factory? Here are some methods:
Dedicated one hour to come up with ideas on how to earn an extra 100$. Choose one and commit.
Ideas get better the more your produce - just like for compositions.
Edison had 2000 patents and Picasso over 20.000 paintings - only very few of them are now in galleries.
Several questions are better than one - write down 10 different versions of the question you want to answer. Also always ask why at least 5 times.
When ideating on a topic, decide to come up with at least 100 ideas. You’re forced to go beyond cliches and experience - the first quick 70-80 ideas need to be out of your mind so you can come up with the fun stuff.
There is no such thing as an original idea - > all ideas are modifications or combinations of old ideas. Make random combinations between thoughts, experiences & businesses
Combine to random objects (car + soap) and create business ideas.

Think and rest in iterations, if nothing happens right away. Trust your unconsciousness to do the heavy lifting and switch between several problems whenever you get stuck.
