When you have a 'wouldnt it be cool if there was an app' idea, write it down. I use something like trello to collect ideas. Then i'll see if an idea is feasible and discard or move forward with it, for e.g. Can I develop something useful on my own, what are the competitor options like, what data do I need to make this work. If you feel like you can make something useful start working on it, day, night, whenever, wherever. You only have so much time outside of work hours so make them count. I have a few apps, most just 'exist' but one of them is now earning $12K/month. I work extremely hard on ASO and invest my own money into marketing through normal channels (facebook/adwords). I quit my job so I can just focus on my apps now. Im my own boss, I can push out updates fast and I manage my own support. Finally moving out of the city now to the coast, to a place much quieter with great views. People might say i'm lucky but I don't. I had an idea and I built it well, i'll never say its luck.
