Find My Direction
“I have too many ideas and don't know which one deserves me.”
You become: Someone with a clear direction
Stop auditioning every idea at once. Inventory what you already have, run three cheap tests, and give one direction a real season.
Understand
How to tell a real interest from a passing one.
Practice
Testing a direction cheaply instead of debating it.
Create
A written 90-day commitment with a start and end date.
Evidence
Three dated test logs and a direction you chose on purpose.
Look inward
Find out what you actually care about and what you already hold.

List 20 things you'd care about even if nobody clapped
Timer on, 15 minutes, 20 items: problems, crafts, people, questions, things that annoy you that shouldn't. Don't filter for practicality — that's the next step's job. Then circle the five you'd still care about if nobody ever saw you do them.
You’ll have:A list of 20, with 5 circled.

Write your capability inventory
Four columns: skills I already have, resources I can reach, people who'd take my call, experiences nobody else has. At least five entries per column. Almost everyone undercounts this list by half — keep going past the point it feels done.
You’ll have:A four-column inventory with 20+ entries.
Look outward
Replace speculation with three cheap, real tests.
- Understand25m
Find 10 people two steps ahead of you
For your top three circled interests, find ten real people doing that work — not celebrities, people two steps ahead. Write one line each on what they actually do all day, not what their title claims.
You’ll have:10 names, one honest line each.
