| Thank you for the awesome advice!! I will definitely start doing that. Recently I have been thinking a lot along these lines, and I came up with somewhat similar approach. When I stuck at coming up with ideas, I make a list of what I would do if I would have time/power/resources of: - God - literally ability to fix any problem, do anything imaginable. - Google - billions of dollars and smartest people in the world - Elon Musk or Richard Branson - millions of dollars, decades of time to plan for - 10 years and 10 million dollars - 5 years and 200k I've recognized that my lack of ideas comes from me "filtering out" everything too expensive or too hard or too uncertain, and making such list helps me to get rid of that. Think of a project ideas from the opposite direction, not "what can I do now", but "what needs to be done", and then solve it from there. |
What helped me was to use open source software a lot, by switching to Linux and using FOSS Android apps (have a look at f-droid.org).
Another cool option (like another comment said) would be decentralied versions of existing services, eg Youtube, Facebook, Github etc. Some projects like that already exist.
