Visa list has both government website and visa agency link. Users can choose to use what is convenient for them. Visa list also provides all document requirements so anyone can do it themselves.

When I see a potential problem, see if I can solve it. See if it's already being solved, if not I pitch the idea to few people. If at least 50% got excited. I pick this idea to build.

You can find problems in your day to day life. Travelling is another way of discovering new problems. Every problem is not worth building a solution for. Only the burning ones with business potential.

I love solving problems by building solutions. I Travel every now and then. Make a backlog of new ideas, keep pitching them to friends, work on my current one. One step at a time. I took things very slowly instead of rushing and getting into pressure.

Yes there were a few. But I try to always keep the cost of failure small. This is how I try to be frugal.

* I see a potential problem, see if I can solve it. See if it's already being solved, if not I pitch the idea to few people. If atleast 50% got excited. I pick this idea to build

* I set a goal on day 1 on what the microstartup should achieve once its launched. * I try to take no more than 4 weeks to build it.

* I do a public launch in IH, PH, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and Reddit. In few weeks if I reach the goal that I set at the beginning, then I continue working on it to improve. If not then I will drop it and move on the next.

You have objective in making this choice, most people cling on to the sentiment.

My general approach is t make my business fully automated. Once i do that, i have time to thing in different directions.

Organic channels are your lifesavers, the ones which will make your microstartup successful, so start working on them from day 1.

I have few things planned for 2022.
