what's ur problem?

Read time: 1 min, 10 sec Sorry about my rant yesterday about problems. And how you need them if you want to actually get rich. (sorry, I'm just really passionate about this stuff) Of course, after I shot off this email, I got 100 replies like this: "All the good problems have already been solved!" Ok ok. I get it. First off – this stuff is hard. Remember: if it was easy, everyone would do it. Second – I think I’ve got something that will help. But it requires taking a moment to think about this question: What’s ur problem? Let me explain. When I first started out, I looked everywhere for problems to solve. Reddit. Forums. Research tools. Twitter. Wikipedia. I was looking OUTSIDE for problems to solve. When I should have been looking INSIDE. And instead, asking myself this question: "Pat, what's YOUR problem?" I know it sounds cliche and a little cheesy, but stick with me here... The best place to start is with yourself. My initial idea for Starter Story was simple: My problem: "I can’t find any stories of regular people starting businesses." "Hmm… maybe I should build it?? That’s it. I didn’t have a master plan. I didn’t write a 10 page business plan. I just knew I personally needed this to exist in the world. I had a painful problem. So I built something to solve it. Of course, Starter Story has morphed and evolved over the years. But at its core… it's still solving that same problem, just now for millions of people around the world. So... I will leave you with one question: What’s your problem? If you need some more help, don’t worry I gotchu.
