1. Look into trends and what experts in their field are saying. The experts are noticing issues before anyone else. 2. Everyone is a customer and everyone has some pain points. Listening closely and hear what they have to say. 3. Notice when you are in a problem space and a solution space. Take the time to learn about the problem in detail. 4. Lastly go big, large and wild problems need...

Thanks for sharing! I quit my cushy corporate job and took a job in Europe. It worked out well and I stayed in Oslo Norway as a consult for 3 years. Pro's and Con's. Pro's the experience was priceless. I made many friends, learned many different cultures and learned how expats picked up different jobs all around the world. Con's I realized when I came back to the US, that I am a few years...

Great question. Things that help me is a routine, daily/weekly/quarterly goals, and daily journal.

There are many startups that build a product that customers don't need, won't pay for, or worst can't stay a float long enough for critical mass. Basically sales conquers all, get customers early and get quality feedback as early as possible.

Only used Slack and it's worked out very well. But I will take a look at discord.

Online games can help increase teamwork, if done correctly. Building a great team culture is a difficult thing to do in the best environments. How are great team cultures currently created?

The new feature has low value, more of a nice to have. YouTube adding more ads has actually turned me away from the service.

I like your process, although I would spend additional time on step number 1. Focusing on customers, customer interviews, and customer segmentation. Solving a problem for yourself might not be a big enough market segment to make a profit.

I procrastinate way more than I would like. List and deadlines help get me through the procrastination phase and into the motivation phase. Although when I am self-motivated, I get a lot done.

Congratulations! Best wishes on the product launch.

The future for A.I and human tech looks extremely bright. Many new products will be developed to help humans increase their abilities, to super human levels. Smart phones is only the tip of the iceberg.

It really depends on your field. If you are going into social media or sw programming, it is not necessary, but nice to have. If you want to become a physician or mechanical engineer, it's necessary.

In general I do continue to work after my shit has ended. But it might be for 20-30 min or 1-2 hours. It depends if we are near an important sprint release.

Completed 90% of my 2022 goals. Starting to plan for 2023 goals.

Thanks for sharing, this has been helpful.

I would first tell my younger self, take a lot of risk. The older you get the more challenging it is to take risk. Also take massive amounts of action. I mean 20% thinking and 80% action. Lastly learn from your actions and failures. Flip the narrative on how you feel about failure to how you feel about success. Because everyone fails more than they succeed.

I would download this app and start using it.
