So I've got my million dollar idea (LOL, I know), but the obstacles so far are tremendous. I've got a provisional patent app being processed simply because I've been studying patents and it was cheap to file. I need to get a prototype designed and built and will also be dealing with a pharmaceutical. I never done anything like this before, and I have no idea what I'm doing, so it should be interesting.

In the meantime, I need to work on generating revenue to pay for this.

I see a lot of the popular paths here are:

Self Publishing
Importing
Flipping on ebay/craigslist
Services (odesk, etc)
App development/Programming

Not really considering the app programming since it has a huge learning curve and tons of competition. Plus I have no interest in it.

So that leaves the rest. I have no sales experience what-so-ever. I need to get started on something this weekend since I have tons of time at my disposal over the next three days.

I was just curious why people choose the paths they choose. For me, there's really no obvious pull towards any of those options and I hate just picking something at random.
