After I read MJ's book, I started doing precisely what he said and started listening out for needs. "I wish..."
"This is impossible!"
"What we really need..."
I started looking for what frustrated people and what people needed in their lives. I figured I would forget about my own strengths and my own passions, because no one cares about them - they don't make a difference in any life but my own.
So forget that! Forget what makes me happy, I'm going to focus on what will make someone else happy.
MJ says in his book that a lot of small business owners fail because they don't observe Need (among other things). But what do these business owners want more than anything?
Success.
Am I right? As a business owner, that's what you want, you want success. Now if I can figure out what business owners need to make them successful....
Thinking about this, and I landed on 1,000 free business ideas that I'm going share here with everyone.
I wake up at 5am, start a pot of coffee, and work out. After my coffee is done, I pour a cup and set about designing my fastlane plan.
I've noticed that successful people wake up early, and smart people burn midnight oil - but I'd rather be successful than smart, so I wake up early.
Anyway, this morning I stumbled on a fastlane goldmine!
I was thinking, "what to businesses need?" and it hit me: Ask Google!
If you want 1,000 fastlane business ideas for free, simply hop on to google and type in "small business message boards" and "Small business forums" - any deviation thereof.
You now have access to the candid thoughts of millions of business owners, griping and complaining about what they would pay through the nose for - so read, absorb, and then figure out a way to provide that.
Anyway, I'm new to all this, but it just seemed like something I'd want someone to share with me.
