Finding and solving problems is the best opportunity.

Look around, open your laptop, open YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and other platforms. You'll find a whole universe of opportunities.

Opportunities hold different meanings for each one of us.

The big questions is, in an ocean of opportunities, how do we dive in and catch the right one for ourselves?

Here’s the formula (Hint: Stop looking externally, it all comes from within).

Passion + Natural Skillset + Spot a Common Problem + A tangible solution + Implementation + Good response / feedback = $$$.

I hope that makes sense, pretty sure it’s more complex than that. I've simply tried to cover the fundamentals.

On the same note, here’s something else that came to mind and it might contradict what I’ve said above.

Instead of trying to spot opportunities, spot a problem and solve it.

Hope that gets your creative juices flowing.

I know this story is very brief, it only gives you the nuts and bolts. I’ll actually create a more In-depth story on this.

I'd love to know your thoughts in the responses, am I right or am I wrong?

Thank you for reading and wish you a lovely day ahead.
