Ask HN: Settling on an Idea

Thanks for the comments and the links. I've come across strategyzer.com before and I can remember thinking it was worth bookmarking – but of course I didn't.

It's not so much the problem of finding a business model I'm struggling with – it's not knowing when to run with an idea as opposed to sitting on it and looking at other avenues. I think it might be something you learn through experience (and failure). I was just hoping to see other peoples view on it.

I see, I apologize for not providing you with what you were looking for initially. I struggle with over analyzing problems. This leads to paralysis in some cases, including when coming up with ideas for products/services like you're experiencing.

I have a friend who wants me to work with him on a project. The problem he is trying to solve doesn't scratch an itch for me though. I have noticed, for me personally, that I am more motivated to work on something if the solution solves a problem I am currently experiencing.
