If you’re trying to find something truly novel, it might prove extremely difficult. In Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell talks about finding something truly novel and extremes of success are a combination of experience, network, and time period. If you’re working 9-5, you can imagine that it’s tough to develop experience outside of your area of expertise, develop a network, or time something perfectly. I’m not saying this to discourage you. What I mean is, maybe move the bar to create something that’s already been validated, or semi-validated. For example, a problem that you need solving that someone else hasn’t solved yet is semi-validated.
