Day 3

Kill Your Darlings

On day one, you identified your itch. Maybe it was a gap in the market or an annoyance that sparked your entrepreneurial fire. That itch was your starting point, your North Star that will guide this 30-day journey.

But before we dive any deeper, we must address the elephant in the room: our emotional attachment to the idea we built. Psychologists call this the endowment effect, where people tend to overvalue things simply because they own them. When it comes to business ideas, this bias can be fatal. Your itch-inspired solution feels precious because it came from your authentic experience, but the market couldn’t care any less about your personal journey. Your frustration, however valuable, cannot automatically become a business opportunity. This transition requires cognitive flexibility to step outside your own perspective and see your idea through different lenses.

In the age of AI, the bottleneck is the quality of strategic thinking that goes into idea evaluation. What one essentially needs is the rigor necessary to separate genuinely transformative concepts from sophisticated-sounding nonsense.

So, evaluate before building.

Starting a business without validation is like setting sail with a beautifully drawn map that’s never been tested against the real world. Many explorers have perished because their maps led them into storms or dead ends. 

History is littered with brilliant concepts that never saw daylight because their creators never paused to ask if anyone else wanted what they were building. Evaluating a business idea is not about seeking approval from friends or basking in your own enthusiasm. It’s a disciplined process where you gather evidence to prove your idea solves a real-world problem for people. The world’s most successful entrepreneurs, like Henry Ford, sought out honest feedback, measured real interest, and adapted based on what they learned.

Today, we're going to take your itch-inspired idea and subject it to friendly but ruthless scrutiny. The goal is to refine your approach and ensure you're building something the world actually wants.
