The Myth: 'You Can't Build a Startup Anymore'

Most days, I’m cool, calm, and collected.

But this post? This post seriously pissed me off.

I’ve heard this excuse a thousand times—people say it to avoid starting. And deep down, I know they don’t even believe it themselves.

The real issue is they’re scared, lost, or overwhelmed. And guess what? That’s normal.

But here’s the truth: Every day, I read case studies of people making millions off ideas that were "already taken."

– A new email tool pulling in $20K/mo.

– A micro-SaaS hitting $10K/mo in just 6 months.

– Another AI app that wraps GPT-4, thriving in a crowded market.

These businesses aren’t reinventing the wheel. They’re taking proven ideas and doing them differently.

• Do it simpler.

• Do it smarter.

• Do it faster.

• Do it cheaper.

• Do it for men.

• Do it for women.

• Do it niche.

• Do it broad.

• Do it trendy.

• Do it retro.

• Do it luxurious.

• Do it affordable.

The list goes on.

The point is, if you want to build a business that changes your life, stop searching for something brand new. Just find a proven idea and do it differently.

And here’s the craziest part—you don’t even need to do it differently.

You just need to do it.

Taking action is the foundation of all success.
