Turn $1 into $2 and report back.

And I suppose this isn't just a way to get me off of this forum, but a constructive to help me with....

and that's where I'm stuck

(btw Should I not be questioning your advice, because you know what youre talking about and just start doing these things?)

What's the last book you read, bud?

My guess is @Kung Fu Steve wants to know whether he can help you or otherwise. He is wondering what kind of person you are. He has an idea and it is up to you to prove otherwise.

I guess, I'm sorry for causing you guys a headache, just really confused on what to do now...

Don't expect anyone to show you each step of the way. If you think someone is gonna hold your hand and lead you in the darkness, down the aisle of entrepreneurship, you are doing wishful thinking. There are monsters and you must fight them yourself. And the fight is magnificent.

Turn $1 into $2 and report back.

Here you are reminded to do something.

What are you doing? What problem are you solving?

It is easier to help someone in motion.

He didn't give you his number for you to NOT call it

This right here

This is most likely the equivalent of helping an old lady figure out what gmail is, but thank you greatly for your help in understanding what all of this is... I have an idea of a problem to solve, but I am not quite sure if it isn't gonna be snatched here, cause I've heard some idea stealers trot through these forms, but it involves a service that is online - most likely through a website.

Is the first step to start learning how to code what I need or to somehow get an idea of whether it is the type of service people need and if it's the latter - any suggestions or links to other threads?

Have you read The 7 Day Startup? It may take an hour or two to get through. And you may find the answer there.

Are there any charecteristics that seperate a caller with potential and someone who just would not be ready for the fastlane?

Yes, a caller with potential calls. Someone who is not ready, deliberates for months, asking people whether they should call.

I really don't see what the problem is, he gave you his number, you have some great replies on this thread. Just ring up and use @JordanK's message.

I would shy away from the meditation just because you can find out about meditation in five minutes from anyone, yet the chance to meet an entrepreneur who clearly wants to give something back, is gold.

What's the worst that can happen?

He understands that you're at school and haven't worked out everything in life yet, which is why he gave his number. Make your nervousness at calling him a topic for conversation when you meet/talk.

Go turn $1 into $2.

THE STEP BY STEP TO DO THAT:
brainstorm 25 ideas to turn $1 into $2 (6 minutes)
narrow it down to 3 to 7 that look feasible (15 minutes)
research them and get details (less than 2 hours)
pick 2 (30 sec)
execute them to the best of your ability. do not stop, relent, think, or do anything else. focus and succeed/fail.

You haven't forgotten? Damn. I am really being held accountable here. Recently I've been having this idea to attack quite an already huge field, but judging that most reviews on these businesses are a 3/5 at best, I'm thinking of doing the same thing, but just to it way better...Not really 1$ into 2$, but its somethin...

It is nothing unless you take action.

What's your next step?
