I think I'm retarded when it comes to ideas. I can't think of much business ideas. I've only got one idea. And yet I still struggle to come up with more. I understand the concept about focus but not all business ideas are exactly suitable for everyone to tackle that meet the C.E.N.T.S requirements. I feel like if I can't come up with a decent amount of business ideas I'll never be able to achieve the Fastlane, because I can't mine a mountain that I can't see. So how did you guys come up with your ideas? And look I know about the domain experience thing but I don't want to wait 30+ years just so I can find an idea. I've tried the methods that MJ suggested but so far they haven't yielded me any decent results. My biggest impediment to the Fastlane is not knowing what mountain to mine.
