Message From the Universe: Making Your Ideas a Reality

"Got any good ideas for this week?

I'm thinking that anything can happen.

But, then, of course, it's not about what I think.

You're up,

The Universe"

You have a new business idea you want to come true? Yes? So what are you waiting for? Every little step you take towards making this idea a reality is to take that first step and go forward from there. Do not worry about the setbacks because there will be plenty of those throughout your journey. You just brush them off and keep moving forward. This is what life is all about. Push and push until you can't push no more. Do not let life bring you down in the dumps and you not fighting back. There is so many things you can do, and if one doesn't work, then figure out what you can do to make things happen. Remember, do all of this because you love it, not because it will bring you fame, fortune or glory. Yes, these are good incentives overall, but believe me, you can't keep on going forward with the needed motivation if money is your ONLY goal. Waking up early, sleeping late, sacrificing a lot for the desire to reach your goals will be a daily practice throughout this journey. The most important part is to keep on loving what you do, no matter the outcome. Yes, it will get frustrating at times, but what isn't? There are risks with everything you do in life, so might as well do the things you LOVE doing.

I will admit that not ALL your ideas can materialize to something real or functional. You may think of the gadget that will provide unlimited source of energy but requires some plutonium capsules that are not readily available or accessible. You may think of ways for people to travel to planet Mars but may not have the proper credentials or knowledge to make that happen. Despite all these possible challenges, focus on the things you are good at and look for the best way to make your passion a career. That is what we would all love doing, day after day, because it is no longer considered as work, but primarily a hobby that will eventually help you get to where you want to go. Not many have that luxury of doing the things they love doing because they feel in the trap of corporate society, which is living paycheck by paycheck, complaining about their crappy job but yet, not doing anything to change their situation. Complaining won't get you far at all, so take that energy and guide it to something more positive. You will see your life change on the spot and will make you realize how much time was wasted because of fear lurking in your mind for so many years.

4 Secret Words to Build A Multi-Million Dollar Business

Do you want a sure fire way to come up with a killer business idea that is sure to make money?

Read this entire post and by the end of it I promise you that you will be able to come up with multi-million dollar business ideas all by yourself. You won’t have doubt, and you’ll know how to come up with an idea that people will pay cold hard cash for.

It’s not rocket science and it’s a heck of a lot easier than you think it is. For most of you, you are confused because you don’t know where to begin. And, after you begin you don’t know how to tell if your idea is good.

A lot of entrepreneurs in the media these days will brag of their success, but rarely give up the secret sauce. The secret sauce I refer to is how they come up with these great ideas and how to know if they are any good. And let me tell you, it’s not magic.

The most important factor in coming up with a multi-million dollar business idea is called Secret Words.

My Method to Come Up With An Idea

I call it Secret Words.

There are a certain set of words that you will find online on forums, support pages, chatrooms, review pages, Yelp, Amazon reviews, etc such as:

• I love…
• If only…
• I hate…
• I wish…

Let’s break that down.

“I love.”

This keyword is usually someone saying how they love a feature “I love the feature that lets me talk to my mom in Australia and sister in London at the same time.”

You can take this and run with it and easily figure out what people really like about a product.

You can use this in many ways, including making sure your product has the big feature that the competitor’s customers love.

“I love” doesn’t help us figure out new features as much, but these words do:

“If only.”

For example, “If only HootSuite allowed me to do X and Y at the same time, I would pay double the price!” That could be something that you could turn into your own social media sharing tool.

“If only” statements will make it pretty obvious what’s missing in existing products. “If only” they had that added feature then maybe people would spend even more money on the product.

Product creators often get stuck creating what they want or think their customers want, rather than avoiding what they hate:

“I hate.”

Hate is a strong word.  Some people use it freely when referring to what they “hate” about a product or service. It’s a really great way to find out what people actually want on a program/app. If someone is out there publicly “hating” something and you can create an alternative that includes that missing feature, then you could be on to the next big thing!

“I hate” groups are often a great way to build a fan base too. From the “haters” of another product or service, you can create a die-hard cult like following.

I’ve personally built entire businesses off of peoples hatred towards a particular missing feature on the competitors otherwise great products. The competitor didn’t fix what the people hated about their product, so I built an alternative that solved that “hate.”

“I wish.”

Wishing for something that’s not there is a great way to figure out what features you could build into your product.

People “wish” for all sorts of features and extras that are missing from their favorite program, app, game, etc. It’s easy to find these in support forums and reviews. They might say “I wish the vegetable steamer had a rubber handle that didn’t get hot.” Then you can go and make one with a rubber handle, if enough people are wishing for that feature!

Your competitors might not be smart.

Often times your competitors might not be looking at feedback the right way. They just ask people what they want, rather than looking at what they “hate”, “love” “wish” for, or “if only” had in the product.

Sometimes just fixing what people hate can make a product 2-3 times better. But a lot of business owners make the mistake of not solving the “hate” and trying to divert their customers attention to other features. This can be a catastrophic mistake and open up opportunities for entrepreneurs like us to capitalize.

Another big secret is that people don’t often know what they want!

Find out what people wish, hate, love and if only you can track down those things, you’ll be able to create your very own product with features that you know people will paymore money for.

That’s the greatness of the internet. You can find out anything, including what people really hate, love, wish or “if only” they had on their favorite website, software, app, game, etc.

Have fun coming up with new business ideas with this method, the sky is the limit!
