Where Do Ideas Come From?

Where Do Ideas Come From?

As you begin to think like an entrepreneur, you'll notice that business idea can come from any where.

  • New technology or opportunity
  • A changing space
  • A side project

<p>Value means helping people....

Value means helping people. Very simple right?

Lets try a complex definition. Value is something desirable or of worth, created through exchange or effort.

In creating value the goal is to improve people life through creating product, service or simplifying process.

Your customers/client should always be at your heart. Answer the question they will ask by improving the solution for better experience and easy use.

Without customer satisfaction their is no value......you create for the people and if possible, with the people.

The more a business can focus on the core benefit instead of boring features, the more customers will connect.

And that's what we all want because that is where the money hides.

EVERY BUSINESS IDEA SHOULD BRING FREEDOM AND VALUE .

EVERY BUSINESS IDEA SHOULD BRING FREEDOM AND VALUE .

The goal of enterpreneuship is to produce freedom and at the same time create value.

Every one who seek financial freedom must have something in exchange for it....its called VALUE.This two are woven together and must be fully understood because they both have something in common which is RESPONSIBILITY to your self and to the people (audience/client).

Let dive into how we can create a blue print for freedom.

1.By convergence- not everything that you are passionate about or skilled in is interesting to the rest of the world, and not everything is marketable.

You must watch out for that point were your passion and what others care about meets. That is the where freedom lies.

Convergence represent that intersection between something you especially like to do or are good at doing (preferably both) and what other people are interested in .

2. Skill Transformation

Remember this law "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another "

That is what happens when starting a business with an idea. You don't wait for anyone rather you work with what you have.

A teacher who wants to start a business should know she doesn't just have the skill to teach but she has been transformed into someone who have developed a communication skill, crowd control skill, adaptability, lesson planning and coordinating among different interest groups (children, parents, administrators, colleagues). This could be useful when starting a business.
