At the core of every successful business is a humble idea.
Anyone can brainstorm a list of thoughts, but we understand that developing ideas with true potential is easier said than done. If you need some sobering proof, according to the Small Business Administration a whopping one-third of new businesses will fail within the first two years.
However, don’t let the statistics get to you! Believe it or not, you can significantly improve the quality of your start-up ideas (and your probability of success) by tapping into a few key tips:
Get creative
Keep your creativity at peak performance. Just like the rest of your body, your brain needs exercise, too! Write, doodle, search the world around you for the perfect photograph—how you pursue creativity doesn’t matter, as long as you are training your brain to think outside the box.
Take your own life into consideration
Consider areas in your own life which could be improved. Whenever you wish that a daily task was more convenient or that a work event was organized more efficiently, ask yourself how you might integrate solutions!
