How do you guys come up with new business ideas?
Something original. Not looking for usual e-commerce like drop-shipping , or Amazon fba.
Currently feel like i'm stuck in a limbo , not knowing what business to start , or what to do in my free-time other than reading, therefore i'm just saving up money and investing into Cryptocurrencies . That is making me a decent amount of money, but not enough to quit my 9-5.
What would you guys do in a situation like that ?
Buy/borrow a copy of "Robot is the Boss: How to do Business with Artificial Intelligence" by Artur Kiulian.
Chap 3 (Which areas will be affected the most?) is a goldmine of ideas. Agriculture, Automotive, Education, Manufacturing.
If AI is not an area you want to provide value in, just pick something and start. Look for niches, and look for pain points or needs.
Not discounting any idea and exercising your ability to spot opportunities will help tremendously. James Altucher said "Perfectionism is the enemy of the idea muscle...it's your brain trying to protect you from harm, from coming up with an idea that is embarrassing and stupid and could cause you to suffer pain. The way you shut this off is by forcing the brain to come up with bad ideas".
He is spot on. Replace perfectionism with "being original" or "looking for the sexy idea" and it remains true.
