Comment on Ask HN: How do YOU choose which business ideas to work on?

Comments

The one I’m most excited about, that has the most realistic path to revenue.

I mull on ideas for months before going all in on them. Some years. I try to take every idea to its logical conclusion in my head, I obsess over it.

Then when the time comes I commit to that one idea and that one idea only. So far I’ve built about 7 projects. All relatively small (months)

My success so far has been to sell one project for about a fifth of my yearly salary but I only spent a week building it, winning multiple “startup” competitions, and now building a tool that I’m going to monetise via subscriptions.
