The Startup Ideas Podcast
The best businesses are built at the intersection of emerging technology, community, and real human needs.
Boxing Gym Approach to Building
Treat idea platforms and building tools as a boxing gym - a place to practice and train your building skills rather than only seeking million-dollar businesses
Decision Rule
Choose projects based on learning value and skill development, not just potential revenue
How It Works
Regular practice with varied projects builds pattern recognition, technical skills, and product intuition that compounds over time
Failure Modes
Only building when you think you have a winner
Not extracting learnings from each build
Perfectionism preventing regular practice
Example Decision
“Build a simple wellness tracker not because you're sure it'll be huge, but because it teaches you about health tech, user experience, and habit formation psychology”
