10 things more important than The Idea
If you’ve never gone out on your own, the economic crisis might have you considering it. Yet many feel paralyzed by the lack of a “good” idea. In my experience I’ve found at least 10 things more important than the idea itself… in no particular order.
- Passion - High Energy and Commitment is required in any setting!
- Your family and close friends - Can’t do it without their support
- Access to good developers - if not you, make some new friends:)
- Access to information - good information goes a long way
- Business Partners that share your Passion - Share and get more done
- Access to clients or customers - without financing, you need buyers
- Health Insurance - as important as your health
- Community - people to talk to
- Prototyping and testing - give the ideas a whirl, early
- Asking for help - you can’t do it alone… besides, they *want* to help you!
