16 Questions which will help you come up with a business idea
Question: I want to build a business but WHAT business? 🤨
Here are 16 questions that will help you to come up with “something” that will give value to people’s lives and … money to you!
My advice is: Don’t start a business just to make money!
The money will not be enough to motivate you.
I failed ALL the times when I pursued an idea just for the money.
Do you know what motivates people? A purpose higher than themselves, appreciation from others, impact, something that matters, something that will stay, curiosity, genuine interest in a subject, the fun of the creation process!
Forget the “million bucks” ideas and slow down for a bit.
Make yourself a cup of tea. 🍵
Get a notebook and a pen and ask yourself: Can you think of …..
- Something you’re passionate about?
- Something that’s interesting to you?
- Something you want to explore more in your life?
- Something you want to learn more about even if you’re not an expert at?
- Something you’re curious about?
- Something you can help people with?
- Something you can teach people?
- Something that has made your life easier that could also make other people’s lives easier?
- Something that could make your life easier that could also make other people’s lives easier?
- Something, a thing that would be nice to have?
- Something you’ve found the solution to that you’re now ready to share with the world?
- Something you’re “dying” to solve for yourself first?
- Something that you find easy but others don’t?
- Something tough you went through that others are going through now?
- Something that’s worth pursuing no matter how impossible it might sound?
- Something that could change the world?
If you slow down and see what has worked for you in your life, you will come up with ideas.
The questions above will tap into your abundantly creative mind.
Don’t listen to others, don’t Google “passive income”. Start with paper and pen. Start with fresh, new thought!
And the most powerful question:
If you had a few people in a room and a few hours before you left this world forever, what would you teach them from your life and experiences? What would you like to leave behind for them?
