Feeling Lost and Stuck For Ideas?
By Daniel Flower | July 10, 2008
For the past two years or so I’ve felt like this - but in the month since I started this blog things have really started to change. I think it’s all down to a chain reaction of ideas. Let me explain…
Sitting there with nothing is very, very daunting. You have a computer and an internet connection, but you have no list, no product, no ideas for products, and no JV partners. It’s daunting, and you can end up feeling like you’ll never make it - and that you’re firmly on the ‘outside’ of an inner circle.
Now I explained in my last blog post why I think networking is SO important, and it’s mainly through just talking to people that in the last month I’ve gone from having zero product and JV ideas to having more ideas than I have time to implement! Getting yourself known to other marketer’s means that you feel like you’re suddenly apart of something on the ‘inside’ rather than the ‘outside’, and I truly believe it’s something big.
This is powerful stuff - get talking to fellow marketer’s, and before you know it you’re striking up a JV venture, collaborating on a product, or maybe it’s just something they say that sparks an idea for a new joint venture, a blog post, a new video, or even a whole new product.
It could just be something you observe. The other day I was reading through someone’s blog and I noticed a comment from someone that gave me an idea for a JV on a product.
One idea leads to another too. Just by talking to people on forums and reading people’s forum and blog posts it’s absolutely incredible the amount of ideas you can generate. And once you’ve got one, there’s no stopping you. It’s almost like a mental block suddenly unleashes and everything suddenly makes sense…
I am very, very excited by the projects and ideas I’ve given myself! 
Stay tuned to the blog and I’ll update you on my progress!
