There's thousands of amazing startup stories out there. And the trick is to ignore 95% of them.
I often get inspired by founders growing E-Commerce stores and want to give it a go myself. But what I'm forgetting is that I wasn't put on this Earth to do that. The founders who make it work, have a unique set of advantages stacked in their favour from the word go (which I don't have)
Maybe they had a background growing Instagram pages, maybe they knew someone who could print cheap t-shirts, maybe their sister was a graphic designer ... It's not the funny t-shirt store which worked. It's that they had the unique set of qualities to make it work.
You have a unique set of qualities, a unique network, a unique personality. Build the product only you can build.

Inspiring, dude. This could bring some clarity to most of us who are lost in a sea of ideas not knowing which one to strive for.
My advice: just pick one and run with it. It’s all about execution. Sure, you’ll make mistakes along the way, but I firmly believe that success comes with hard work and determination.
The idea is only really a small part of the journey, it’s what you do with the idea that counts.
Thanks for taking the time to write that :)
Cheers. And good luck! What ideas are you thinking about?
Quite a lot of them actually, and a few were sparked by other startups already doing it somewhere else.
Really great! Everyone has a purpose. Do that which is unique to you and execute!
Agree! Do what you can. Thank you for inspiration.
