After seeing so many people on MEDIAL talking about Paul Grahamโs โHow to Get Startup Ideas,โ I finally decided to read it myself. Hereโs my personal summary of what I took away from it: The main thing Graham emphasizes is that you shouldnโt try to force startup ideas by just brainstorming in a vacuum. Instead, the best ideas come from noticing real problems around you-especially ones youโve experienced firsthand. ~ If youโre solving your own problem, you know it actually exists, and youโll understand it much better than if youโre just guessing what other people might want. Best startup ideas usually have three things in common: theyโre something the founders themselves want, the founders can actually build them, and very few others realize how valuable the idea is. A lot of failed startups happen because people work on things that sound good on paper but donโt solve a real, urgent need-what he calls โsitcom startup ideas.โ :) Itโs better to build something a small group of people really need, rather than something a large group of people only kind of want. Startups like Facebook, Google, and Apple all started by solving a deep need for a small group, and then expanded from there. Grahamโs suggested to pay attention to our own life, notice whatโs missing or broken, and start there. We shouldn't worry if our idea doesnโt seem huge or glamorous at first-what matters is that it solves a real problem for real people.
