I’m new to this sub and I’ve done some poking around. It seems that the unanimous advice in this sub for people looking to become an entrepreneur is ‘find a problem and sell the solution’.
I’m from a poor family and I’m just a simple working folk. I’ve been trying to think of a way to break free from that life most of my adult years but have never found a way to make it happen.
So my question is. Since I’ve been trying to find a problem to solve for most of my life and failing to do so. How can I make a shift to really find that problem I can solve? It seems most people in here have businesses. What problem did you solve and how did you figure out that problem to begin with?
It’s not just a matter of “finding the problem”, it’s a matter of following through. Finding the problem is easy. If your life is not perfect, you can come up with a solution to your problem (at least you will have one user =) )
More often than not, we are intimidated by the size of the task and how much we have to do. Then we say “well that’s too easy” or “it’s already been done”. Everything has already been done in Simpsons. You need to find the strength to start and see it through. You need that, not to find the “Perfect Problem” and solve it.
That’s the kind of problem you can look for your whole life and find nothing
