It's commonplace to have similar ideas with competitors. The thing is to find your uniqueness. Having a novel design is the key to success. Think before your competitors and the market.

Alexander Galitsky · Answer

@waison_lee solid approach. I typically go from one to zero tho

Filippo Pietrantonio · Answer

An idea is worth nothing without execution. I found that it doesn't matter if you share your idea with friends/family/colleagues or don't. 99% of people won't execute on them :)

Answer

Sometimes I'm a bit worried about that, but on other days, I really don't care and keep innovating.
