I find people often build things because they are possible and interesting but unless you solve a problem they don't add a lot of value and therefore don't get used.
- xer0 15y agoExcellent advice, often ignored. To your comment, I would add that you shouldn't limit your problem to something small or "doable." List and describe as grandiose a problem as interests you, then carve out a piece of that problem whose scope is appropriate for your project.
- FameofLight 15y agoI think thats really simple and excellent piece of advice. I think we as human are very good at ignoring simple things.
- Saqi10 15y agoThanks a lot for the advice guys!! Yh I've been keeping an eye out for problems to solve and I keep telling myself to buy a notepad to jot down any ideas I come up with or a problem I discover. There are problems although big that's why I was ignoring them as they are way put of my league lol but I will listen to your advice and look into it, Thanks again! :)
