So the past months I've been procrastinating on my fastlane journey for really dumb reasons. A few months ago I already "discovered" several business ideas (that would solve needs) in different niches but since then I've been procrastinating any further evaluation. Therefore I haven't progressed or taken any action on my fastlane journey.

To change that I've created this thread --> commit myself + provide value for you

My plan is to journal my fastlane journey:

  1. how I decide for one out of several ideas
  2. how I execute on that idea
So first off I will journal how I evaluate my ideas and after I've decided for one the plan is to go into execution.

I hope that I can help some members with that thread, even though I am in the very early stages of my fastlane journey.​

BTW I've stumbled across the Blue Ocean Stragegy and was wondering if you can you recommend it for the evaluation of ideas?
