I’ve been trying to launch startups on the side for the past 3 years, indie hacker style. Many evenings and weekends were burnt. Yet I gained very little traction, and made a big fat 0 dollars.

Having taken a break in December, I now find that I can’t get back into working on any ideas I have on my list. Mostly because I’m realizing that they don’t solve a pressing need.

I still want to start something of my own, but I don’t know what to do next. Here are some of the things I’ve tried in the past:

- Switched careers (from sales to dev) to better prepare myself for starting a tech business. Realized that tech is the easy part.

- Looked for business cofounders. Everyone who was open to partnering wasn’t willing to validate their ideas; they just wanted me to build the whole thing in one go.

- Joined a startup accelerator. Found it’s like playing the lottery.

So here I am, asking for advice :)
