1) Admittedly, my earlier startups are kinda just following the hype hence the Groupon clone and what not. I have since stopped following the hype. However, that is also the reason why I was stuck in my room for 6 months keep trying to find "the right one".

2) Fortunately, money is not an issue. I am very privilege to be in this position. With that being said, I can't just sit down and do nothing. I need to find some source of income.

3) I was messing around with Arduino, 3D printers and Raspberry Pi while I as still working in my friend's startup. Ever since then, I felt like I needed to do something more "serious" to make some money as I am out of job at the moment.

- I don't think "stuck in my room for 6 months keep trying to find "the right one"" is a good idea. Please change your plan/approach.

- Since money is not an issue, we can cross out the need to get a job to make ends meet and start thinking about fun things to do.

- I believe Idea is not a light-bulb moment after meditation for 6 months in your room; it sort of require you try doing different things in order to bump into the light-bulb moment.

More random advices:

- Do u like Hardware or Software? Assuming you are into tech ideas.

- Unless you have partners and funding, the scope of your project need to be within your own capabilities in order to reach mediocre success in terms of user adoptions.

- You don't need the best idea, just good enuf idea which interest you. Why passion/interest in important? So that you will work on it even though there is no money and users for 6 months, and you use/like your own product.

- Discipline. Build/Ship something every month is an interesting idea.
