Kickstarting An Idea
Wednesday, March 02, 2011 07:53 PM

This blog entry is a directed one.  Some of you might wonder if I'm directing it at you.  But those in the crosshairs will just know.  It will strike a chord that gets plucked so rarely that its note stirs us deeply, emotionally, raising goosebumps like when the air conditioning kicks in during the mind-blowing plot twist of your now-favorite movie.  And after you've dealt with it, you just know everything is going to change.

As I'm sure you both know, I've really been wanting to work on some sort of project that gives us financial freedom.  We all have talent, there's no questioning it: aptitude for learning, thinking outside the box, insane creativity... it's all there.  And when we all get together, we feed off each other, magnifying that talent, sometimes by an order of magnitude.  Especially if we're all excited about th.

And there are those times that we get excited about something, and then all of us actually devote some time into it.  And, for however long we all devote that precious time, we get a lot done.  But eventually, time becomes a factor, and we end up letting whatever it is fall by the way side, because family and jobs are more important.

Eventually, we start thinking about things that will make us money, something we can work together on so that we can all be successful.  So we can have money to do what we want.  So we can have time to do what what want.  Whenever we want. Something that would spawn a business, so we can all work together, make some money, and attain the freedom that lets us fulfill those desires.  And we come up with lots of ideas: games for the Android OS; web applications, either installed on-site or via Software as a Service; and probably a bunch of other stuff that I can't remember.

And once again, time is just too much of an issue.  There doesn't seem to be any real-world motivation, and it is so hard to allot time to something that feels like it is just a pipe dream.  Gotta devote time so we have something that investors will be interested in... but we need investors so we can devote time to have something... ugh.

Well, yet again, I have an idea.  A seed, sitting below the surface of some good all be it dry soil, just waiting for that trickle of water so that it can sprout.  I have the water, but the real question is: are you willing to help me pour it?  'Cuz I got an idea to Kickstart it!

This is a call to arms, gentlemen.  A shout right in your face, like Woody Harrelson in Zombieland, "it's time to nut up or shut up."  Are you listening?
