Startup Stuff: Idea generation

Today's episode is just me talking about startup stuff. Today's topic is idea generation. I know a lot of people struggle to come up with an idea to work on, and there's some other people who only have one idea and can't get past their first idea. They think they can only do that one thing forever.

So here's what I think you should know about idea generation first. Ideas are not precious. Ideas are not rare. They're everywhere. You. If you think you only have this one good idea, change your mind. You can come up with a lot more, a lot others out there, and we're gonna talk about. Second, I think you should start looking at the world as a set of problems and solutions.

Go through your day, look around, try to identify every problem you can and propose solutions for those. And we'll talk about that in a little bit. And finally, Don't exit the idea generation stage until you have 50 to 100 ideas written down. And that might sound crazy. That might sound like a lot, but when we talk about the process, you'll see it's really not that hard to get there.

 Those are three things that I, I really want you to know:
- Ideas are not precious. They're not rare, they're everywhere. 
- Second, start looking at the world as a set of problems and solutions. 
- And third, keep going until you have 50 or 100 ideas before you exit the idea generation stage.
