My problem is that I rarely get any ideas I notice. Maybe I'm not doing enough stuff? Maybe all my stuff is very basic? Is there something else that I could do everyday that will "exercise my mind" for coming up with business ideas?
After a couple of assessments and personal growth exercises I found out that my core values in life are:
- Curiosity
- Intimacy (cultivating one-to-one relationships, and allows others to confide in me)
- Connection (Being present with others, fully engaged. Like going to a concert or protesting with people)
- Adventure
- Contribution (helping others, making a positive difference to myself or others)
- Self-development
Another exercise was asking what problems I would work on if I had the opportunity and no limits. The most important problems (in my opinion) that I would work on if possible would be:
* Promoting Unions and Worker Rights
* Wealth Inequality
* Allowing equal access to voting
* Reducing the cost of college
* Promoting Equal access to Education
* Finding a Cure for Dementia/Alzheimers
* Lowering Violent Crime
* Allowing more ISP options
* Making VR more accessible
* Pushing for EV vehicles.
* Push for building modern infrastructure (bridges, mono-rails, etc).
And just some random things I would currently do in life if I didn't have the fear and all the money or the right ideas:
* Learn to Fly Planes
* Be a radio host/commentator
* Race car driving
* Battle Bot fighting
* Play more sports
* Start a business
So how do I find a career in Tech that will tackle some of the things I want above? Because I think one of my main issues at the moment is that what I do touches on none of that (or does so very little and not often enough).
