And that's a big deal! I suck at being on camera, had a terrible setup and everything worked against me. I'm also super tired. But none of that can be an excuse. I did it anyway, because there is no worse time to start something you should do than an uncertain tomorrow.

Is validating your idea. Knowing if people will buy what you sell. There are a few different ways to do that, but they are either slow or expensive. Counting on family and friends usually backfires, as they will often discourage you, because they don't understand, or give fake validation because they don't want to hurt your feelings. You can pay for consultants to tell what you should do and auditors to point out the flaws in your work. That's expensive. You can also test by advertizing everywhere, but that takes a lot of work, and also money if you do paid traffic. So what is the alternative? Conect with people on communities like this one or mine, so people can validate what you're building without the need to pay for expensive professionals to do so. Seek out to people yourself by building real connections. Don't spend your time just wondering what you should be doing and bashing your head, thinking you should figure everything out by yourself. Test things out, seek feedback, apply what you learn and keep improving! What is the main thing you'd like to get feedback on?
