The chaos of ideas (and how to fix it)

Damn, are you also one of those who’s running around from idea to idea and unsure what to do about it?

Well, you’re no different — 99.99% of people out here are just like you.

That includes me.

But luckily, I figured it out.

And guess what?

It took me 6 years of entrepreneurship to reach a place where there’s finally some clarity.

Right now, I’m working on just two things:
Mindsemble and another product (doesn’t have a name yet).

Here’s what I did to eliminate the chaos:

• I took each idea and asked: Where and how does this apply to my own life?

• The deeply relevant ones made the cut.

Because here’s the truth:

You need a strong reason to work on any problem; if that reason is yours, nothing beats it.

I’ve chased ideas and problems that weren’t mine.
Sure, I found some success, but I’ve also failed hard.

The realization:

You can’t really work on anything that doesn’t feel like yours.
So why force it?

Instead, pay attention to the friction points in your own life.
That’s where the real ideas are — the ones worth building.

We’ll sit together and figure out what’s real and launch it.

Until tomorrow,
