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?

    If you are a simple working folk, then you are already getting paid to solve problems. It also means you have at least some access to a functioning business, so you can learn about how that business operates to solve customers’ problems. Additionally, you can learn about what problems typically frustrate your employer and then figure out how to solve those problems for other businesses in exchange for money.
