i look at it from 3 angles:
1. classify your ideas as 0 = "Near misses issues" (i.e. issues or problems that businesses may have but have put as low priority in most of the cases and no likelihood to change unless big consequences come knocking) and 1 = 'Root cause problems" (i.e. a problem that sits at the core of the business whereby without solving this problem the business will definitely face big and undeniable implications).
2. Domain expertise: focus your flow of ideas and projects on a domain you understand (Because of your passion for that domain or career/experience within that domain) as this helps to also validate some of the perceptions you may have.
3. Last but not least is the idea of perception vs prospective: Listen to what others faced with issues in the domain you understand say about those issues and understand how often this problem emerges and whether is a productivity, technology of or behaviour based problem involved
Hope this helps and wish you the best in your venture!

Rest can be work too! Sometimes it takes deep focus on something and then stepping back (even if just to get some sleep) for an idea to pop up
I try to identify a problem and see if I can create a solution from there. I always try to work on something that I'm struggling with, so that I'm able to emphasize with the situation and also have a perception of what solves my problem.
Since I write lots of code, typically for me I find areas where I don't feel super productive. Some of those areas are interesting and fun, and I add them to a list of ideas. If/when I have time and motivation, i'll take a stab at open sourcing a library to help solve the problem.

One of my go-to strategies is maintaining a constant feedback loop with users.
Understanding their pain points and needs often triggers innovative solutions.
