How to tackle startup problems like a boss š
I love the startup world because of the endless number of problems you encounter along the way! I think the best moments in life are when you face an obstacle and find a solution, even if it means bending the rules a little. We all know itās the result that counts.
Imagine a life where you have so many problems, but you always find the solutions and then tell others about the situation you were inā¦ itās incredible.
For me, the word āstartupā means complex problems that last indefinitely. If you donāt like to complicate things, this article is perfect for you.
I have a simple method that helps me see things differently, think strategically, and always find a QUICK SOLUTION. I call it I.C.T.E ( Information, Cost, Time, Execution).
First, I identify the problem by asking myself why itās stopping me from moving forward and achieving my goal. Once Iāve identified it, I go into research mode, always reminding myself that there are over 7 billion people on this planet, and someone out there has already found the solution to my problem. With that in mind, we begin the method.
Information : is critical in the startup world. Being up to date is a source of invaluable data. My associates often say āGoogle is your friendā when someone is searching for information, and itās totally true. Today, you donāt need a bunch of books, all the info you need is on the internet. As for Cost, Time, and Execution, I have a few more tips.
Cost : Try to find the most cost-effective solution. Donāt waste money on things that arenāt necessary. For example, if you need a new tool, try to find a free alternative or one that offers a free trial before committing to a paid plan.
Time : Time is of the essence in the startup world. You donāt want to waste any of it. Prioritize your tasks and focus on the most important ones. Donāt procrastinate or get sidetracked by things that arenāt relevant to your goal.
Execution : Execution is the most critical part of the process. You need to act on your research and put your ideas into action. Donāt be afraid to fail. Youāll learn from your mistakes and become better equipped to handle future problems.
In conclusion, problems are a part of life, but they donāt have to be a burden. With the right mindset and approach, you can turn them into opportunities. Remember I.C.T.E and keep pushing forward like a boss.
