sariel85343yEvery idea is good, but great ideas have a solid market to sell to.
Hope you realize your vision and have fun doing it. -
jeeper59663yI’ve found that identifying and taking the next smallest step towards making your vision reality helps calm the mind.
Not the next step of “start the company” more like the next step of “write a mission statement for the potential company”
Not build a prototype, but do extensive market research. That kind of thing.
Not to stop you but to get you in the mind space that bringing an idea to market is a marathon, not a sprint. -
matt-jd10303yDepending on the idea I'd say just go, if it is more of a big deal then take a step in realising it and test the waters to see if its really a good idea

@rEaL-jAsE PoC is already in progress. All the problems have been tackled down but one. Once I have a solution for that one - will assemble the whole thing and test it in real life. If that works out, I'll invest some more and build a bigger version of it. Give it an endurance test for a couple of months. If it pans out - I'm thinking about patenting it. Didn't find any patent that'd cover what I'm building, soo... that might just be my golden ticket.
If test results turn out at least as good as current alternatives, I will definitely have the market, as the price of building it is absurdly small. Compared to the current alternatives...

Because I've got a new exciting idea "💡" buzzing all over my mind all the time.
It's been 9 days already and it's still exciting, probably even more. I think that means it might be worth going ahead and realising it.
