I finished reading the Fastlane, took lots of notes, and followed up on a lot of the information to get the information I needed on vetting ideas. My research was extensive, but:

I'm dead in the water. The meteor of life is hurdling towards my dingy, but I'm paralyzed. I have paddles and I have the stamina, but I don't know which direction to row in.

I have the framework on what makes a good idea, but I don't have any of my own. I go out in the world and I'm aloof. Rarely do problems (everything, but of the interpersonal type) arise in conversation or in passing. The only time I see possibilities is when other people tell me their own ideas (and I mean the world of possibilities: branding, acquisitions, automation).

I'm in a rut. I'm thinking of just starting my own clothing line. Not because there's a need or that I think that I can provide value, only because I think it'll be better than just being stuck in this paralysis (and I have the resources that will teach me how at my disposal). I want to do this more than anything, but I don't know how to press the accelerator.

Either the above or I'll get a subscription to use the "Executioner Needed" forum and find something.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Per InformationH I've butchered my original rant and kept the main points.

Edit: biophase gave me a Eureka moment -- I'm out of my rut
