In other words, parent is asking you(OP) to validate. If you have a problem which is itching you to solve by building something, Then it's probably the best way to get started without quitting your day job. If others are willing to pay for your solution for solving their problem, Then you might have a startup idea(which actually can work out). P.S. In case you want to take a look at some problems which needs solution (or) to check if there are others who want your problem to be solved then I run a platform for that - https://needgap.com https://needgap.com.
