Learn to brainstorm by yourself – list 20 ideas. Have a thought of something challenging, don’t just stop there, write it down, list all the ideas and plans to support it. All this are just sparks at that moment, some will not work and some are silly, it’s fine, tune it you will do just as good down the road.

Planning of something for yourself same, list it, things you have experience in, things you are comfortable to do all day long, things that you are comfortable even it would bring you an income. That’s where you see yourself in different perspective.
