    Am I making toothpaste?

    HOT! IDEA 
    Most toothpastes are commodities, so I'd advise that you value skew upon multiple elements. First of all, you got the health angle figured out–no fluoride or BS toxins. That's a nice skew. Now, let's think of something besides the toothpaste itself: How is your product delivered? Would a kid...

    Success loves solitude

    MINDSET 
    During covid, I wrote about this in my notes and titled it as "Solace in Solitude?" I agree with what you say here. A person should be EXTREMELY comfortable in their own presence, and possess the ability to entertain themselves. For example: I could sit in a room by myself all day because I...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Made a social media handle and will begin to gauge interest. I'll do this by briefly interacting with coffee enthusiasts etc. However, this is more a form of artifical busy work until I get my hands on the samples. While I'm in the early validation stages, it's the perfect time to pick up Eric...

    I have made a 12 Week Plan to launch my business, here’s how it’s going. Can you help me reach my goal to $6k USD monthly please?

    MARKETING 
    This idea is like selling butter knives when the store next to you is selling Swiss army knives. My opinion would be to re-enter the idea stage. I think you'll be eaten alive; there's no hole in the market for this type of service that can't be solved more efficiently and cheaper. But that's...

    Is Passive Income Less Attainable Than Before?

    HOT! QUESTION 
    The entry to "passive income" is so low that the whole market is saturated with shit products and services. Do we really need a new fitness clothing brand? (Most of which is dropshipped bullshit anyway). Do we really need that new SAAS that does the exact same thing as Joe Blow's start-up...

    MJ should I go university?

    HOT! INTRO 
    Buy a little car, bootstrap some form of business, and invest the rest. There's literally no reason why young people should be drowning in student debt. I didn't even finish high school. I never lose sleep over it. I'm not intellectually inferior to my peers. I'm a man of education. Not...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    After a lot of back and fourth with manufacturers, I seem to be making great progress with a Chinese manufacturer. A sample for my proposed supplement will be $150, which is reasonable considering the effort their R&D team must undertake. If this sample is up to par, they're willing to work on...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Working on a potential "supplement" for coffee - I have some ingredients being shipped to me to complete a functional MVP. For the last couple of days, I've been going back and fourth with manufacturers. Let's just say they aren't very accommodating to bootstrapped projects. One guy told me...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Swooped up a .com domain for my proposed brand name; €5, so no biggie if I change it. Speaking with manufacturers to figure out if my product is viable and within my budget (I hate this 100,000 MOQ bs). Tomorrow, I'll pick up some ingredients and design an MVP.

    Leaning into rejection: Asking for free coffee.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    This thread is f*cking hilarious (in a good way). I most definitely don't think you're a freeloader; you're just exercising your mental muscles in the most extreme environment. It's funny, because people–respecting your monumental balls of steel–will actually accept your bizarre proposition...

    HOT! IDEA FEEDBACK 
    Sounds like you're living the dream lol. My daily ritual is almost identical. These are big ones. Didn't think of GERD though, I think I have some sort of "solution" conjuring up in my mind. You're not wrong. But also, I'm of the belief that a man must have one or two vices, especially if he...

    The Biggest Issue with Coffee Is...

    HOT! IDEA FEEDBACK 
    Whether you're a coffee drinker or not, let me ask you - what's the biggest issue you encounter with coffee? Or - what's a reason why people around you avoid drinking it? It could be anything, let loose! I'm doing some preliminary research regarding coffee, so your feedback is more than helpful!

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Another LSIS compliant idea has came to me today—my strongest yet. Preliminary research will begin tomorrow, and it's so simple that I'll be able to make a functional MVP by tomorrow. As you can see, the creative process shifts dramatically. Although it might appear to be manic or...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Whilst I'm still casting my net out there, an idea to value skew upon the car air freshener keeps popping back up. For maybe the last 2 days, I've found myself obsessing over technical details such as: How will I make the scents? What type of absorbent membrane do I use? Oh crap, how will...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    The creation of ideas is scarily easy (at least for me). The issue is that an idea or product has to have a solid business model behind it. For example, I thought of a condensation activated fragrance device for when you're showering. Yeah, it's cool, but why not use a water activated one...
