Pen and paper. I do all my planning on pen and paper.

@cedric_misner Pen and paper can be a real productivity booster!

Brainstorm (to figure out the details). Design (letting my creative imagination run wild). Improve (share with the world, get feedback, make it more meaningful). 🤓🚀

I would write it down as soon as possible. I wanna a good tool to encourage myself to do this, like recording something?

domain + social accounts ==> no launched products :(

Call (yes, call) my friend, @kateferrara, and start the convo with "yo, wouldn't it be cool if [fill in the blank]" She checks me — sometimes my ideas are, in fact, not cool. Then we spend the next 20-30 minutes searching the interwebs for competitors, throwing out ideas to build on the initial concept, brainstorming a name, searching for domains, and if it feels right, we jump right in.

First, I outline the general tasks. in notepad or google table. Then I go through the tasks, paint them, and visualize them (through mockups)

I go on Pinterest to see if my competitors are there haha. I'm just in love with Pinterest and luckily my competition doesn't care to be active there. Then, I create accounts on all social media platforms.

Hmm let's see, I find me the nicest paper, the least used pen and before you know it I am typing away on my laptop :) Jokes aside, as an introverted product person I face my fears by talking to as many people I can find and get feedback on the idea so I fail faster if I have to.

First of all, I formulate a plan, that the work on this is to start from where and what to do. After that I take the help of Google, to what extent this is going to be right, and I also think, what can I do for the best result as soon as possible.
