aviophile544521dYou also need network but it can be covered in funding section I guess. Shaking the hands of correct people makes it really easy.

Nanos1187921dIdeas are easy, go into any companies forum where folk are complaining, and listen to what kind of product they really want !
Motivation might come from that..
As for funding..
First spend all your own money building the product, and then its working, and you have sold a few, visit venture capitalists who will more than happy to invest in owning 51% of your business..
They will have a plan to big up the company and sell it to someone else in 5 years time, so you can cash out and retire. -
jassole153021dGet off your fucking ass, and start doing it regardless of motivation. Bootstrap the bitch, dont be a beggar.

aaronswart10420dThought it's not really about the ideas but the execution and founders. for me, the biggest problem is finding a cofounder.
-
jassole153020d@aaronswart cofounder to do all the shit work, while I can relax call the shots, I know the feeling

aaronswart10419d@jassole what you described is boss and employee. cofounders have more chance at succeeding than a solo founder. It's a statistical fact, plus, it's more fun.

jassole153019d@aaronswart well I don't disagree, but certainly hard to find like minded people who have the same vision
