Don’t die before achieving something.
Sep 10 - 2024

I believe everyone wants to achieve something before they die.
What gets in the way of achieving something?
Â
Let’s explore the problem space connected to this.
But before we jump in, what is the problem space?
To create a great product, it’s a good practice to first explore and understand a problem, before jumping into finding solutions. The idea is to focus first on an interesting problem to solve, rather than exploring what a potential product can solve. Exploring the solution space should come second, when a problem is well identified.
In this post we’ll focus only on the problem space.
