10X Your Chances Of Startup Success

To 10x your chances at startup success: Fix a problem that you yourself have.

  • Make a list of 15-20 problems in your life 
  • Rank them by the most painful 
  • Build a product that solves one of them

This is crucial because:

  • You’ll have a familiarity with the problem which will help you design a solution
  • You’ll have knowledge of existing solutions and what they lack
  • You’ll know about the space
  • Youll know about your target market and customers

Building a company for a problem you have is better than building a company for financial reasons.
