Thought 1

I was looking for a birthday card for my boyfriend and it came to me! what if there was an online store with all sorts of cards possible, where it could also deliver same day or next day with a reasonable cost ?  I thought that was a good idea but not one that will bring me money..

A co worker and I participated in an innovation challenge for work. We submitted 7 ideas in five different categories.

Thought 3

Going snowboarding for three nights.. who knows maybe an idea pops in my head while in the mountains.. :-)


Side Note

Picked up a new book on my nook.. I have mixed feelings about it... I should probably be reading something more technical ;-)

Day 1

Today it hit me.. It's about time for me to start really focusing on the next big thing and think about what my business can be...
I spent some time reading this article on starting and engineering services business. Is this the route I want to go ? Am I ready to write up my business plan ? What is this service that I would be offering ? Networking ?Solar systems? Green Technology ?! Security ?!
Certain bullets are very obvious to me.. This new idea needs to be something I know how to do and can do well.. so it's not necessary spread spectrum or satellite communication that I went to school for but rather networking , IDS, firewalls and that sort of thing. I need to like this idea and don't mind doing it for long hours at a time.. It also needs to generate a steady consumer need...

I'm not sure what business I'm going to start or where I will end up, but this blog will reflect my journey.. The journey of an ordinary engineer to success...
