No Idea What You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

A conversation came up in my local "mastermind" group meeting this morning, which lead me to thinking of a simple way to find a business idea.

Let's say you have no idea what business you want to start.

You don't even know what you'd like to be doing.

Create a 3-column grid, like so:

-------------------------------------------
My Skills My Passions Market Demand
-------------------------------------------

List all your skills (what you can do) and all your passions (things you can be doing for hours without noticing the time go by, then pick up a few magazines that catch your attention and browse.

Look for patterns and possibilities of where you can apply your skills and passions.
