Excuses… or Self-Sabotage?

June 25, 2015 by Caitlin Pyle 1 Comment

Let’s talk about excuses. Do you have a friend or family member who constantly makes bad choices, then asks you for advice? “Why doesn’t he ever text me back?” (maybe it’s because you’re making yourself way too available and you’re practically screaming “I’m desperate!”.) “I hate my job…” (…but you’ve done nothing to change it.) “Ugh, I am so out … read more

3 Steps to Test Your Idea(s)

1) Find one (one!) person interested in your idea. You can do this via FB message, email, phone, or in person. If you’re not sure, ask ANYONE remotely close to the idea, even your parents. We’re not aiming for perfection right now, just a start.

2) “Test” your idea using this script: “I’m thinking of starting some kind of website around [IDEA]. When you talk to your friends about it, what do they say? What’s the biggest pain or problem around [IDEA]?”

3) Write down exactly what that person says. Did they say, “I want a quick fix”? or did they say, “I am so tired of feeling tired all the time.” Chances are, they’re communicating some kind of pain to you, not a desire for a cure-all.
