Identify a problem or challenge you or others face, then brainstorm potential solutions. Projects often stem from addressing real-world issues.

Launching soon!
I research trends and gaps, brainstorm solo or with others to foster creativity, and collaborate with my team and stakeholders for diverse perspectives. I also use tools like WorkBot to organize and reference past resources for shaping future projects.
By looking at unfiltered conversations on forums like Reddit and creating a product around it.
The product also has to interest me otherwise i lose motivation to carry on.
i look at it from 3 angles:
1. classify your ideas as 0 = "Near misses issues" (i.e. issues or problems that businesses may have but have put as low priority in most of the cases and no likelihood to change unless big consequences come knocking) and 1 = 'Root cause problems" (i.e. a problem that sits at the core of the business whereby without solving this problem the business will definitely face big and undeniable implications).
2. Domain expertise: focus your flow of ideas and projects on a domain you understand (Because of your passion for that domain or career/experience within that domain) as this helps to also validate some of the perceptions you may have.
3. Last but not least is the idea of perception vs prospective: Listen to what others faced with issues in the domain you understand say about those issues and understand how often this problem emerges and whether is a productivity, technology of or behaviour based problem involved
Hope this helps and wish you the best in your venture!

I find inspiration for my projects from a variety of sources. I constantly keep my eyes and ears open for emerging trends, user needs, and technological advancements. I also love to brainstorm with my team and bounce ideas off of each other to spark creativity. Additionally, I make it a point to stay connected with the community and gather feedback and suggestions from users. Ultimately, the key is to stay curious, open-minded, and always on the lookout for innovative solutions to create impactful projects.
Rest can be work too! Sometimes it takes deep focus on something and then stepping back (even if just to get some sleep) for an idea to pop up
I try to identify a problem and see if I can create a solution from there. I always try to work on something that I'm struggling with, so that I'm able to emphasize with the situation and also have a perception of what solves my problem.
