Hello, Fastlaners

it's 22 pm here in Spain and I got some time to write this post, as I want to know your opinion because "Follow your passion" is a complicated subject here.

I've been thinking this weekend about the process of picking a niche. I listened to a lot of information about this, what niche should you pick, why... Some people say that you have to identify a problem and then you'll see the niche in which that problem or need is into, other people say that you have to pick a niche that you are passionate about and then solve a problem or need that you find in it, others say you have to pick a niche as potential as possible (depending on the people inside that niche and their overall behavior) regardless of whether you like it or not or your interest in it, etc.

So my question is: What do you think? Would you pick a niche you like and then find problems or needs in it, or would you look for problems everywhere and "adapt" to the niche you find the problem you're going to solve?

Looking forward to your points of view,

Santi.
