When you are searching for the next project/startup to work on, what kind of things should you do to fill up your day?
With so much free time on my hands, I find it quite difficult to not get distracted by video games or mindlessly browsing the Internet. The devil finds work for idle hands.
It seems like ideas for projects/startups don't really come about if you sit down and just think super hard. Ideas usually come to me spontaneously from some life experience, so it doesn't seem like I can force it. Unless I am doing it wrong somehow...
One thing I tried to do is to just work on various side projects. But I find it really hard to work on a project without a clear vision on what I want the project to become. I just lose interest and stop.
I find that I can only persevere with a project when I have a clear vision on what it will become.
It's been quite awhile since I felt genuine excitement about working on something. I know what that feels like and every day I'm trying to find a way to find that excitement again.
So how do you go about living each day when you are unsure of what you want to work on?
