Following the suggestion of a few of you a couple of weeks ago, I started thinking of creating my own business. I'm definitely excited about the new prospect, but I have a hard time coming up with ideas what to do. I like online businesses as they give me the opportunity to operate them from anywhere, and (more importantly) their market potential is second to none (as discussed in MJ's book). I'd appreciate your help on how to get started.
