THINK BIG! THINK BIG! THINK BIG! So, how big can YOU really think??

I have a concept for a product that, if it works, and if it were legally mandated, could make driving at night substantially safer for everyone. It would allow everyone to effectively see as though their high beams were on all the time, and it would allow them to do it without distracting other drivers, no matter how close the other driver is. It would make the darkest roads look as though they were lit up by street lights and a full moon. Drivers would be able to see the "light" their car emits, but oncoming cars would perceive it as drastically dimmer. The principles of the system are well known. The difference is, I figured out a system that would allow it to be easily retrofitted to other vehicles, already produced. And how to do it cheaply - for less than $20 per car. And it could be done as a completely passive technology, requiring no electricity, no upkeep, and no ongoing expense.

So what's stopping me? The lack of money in my bank account, how easily the idea could be stolen, and the complete lack of ability to get the attention of the people who could promote such a product. It wouldn't work unless everybody had it.

Fortunately, I have other ideas that are more financially feasible and require a much smaller budget, and less R&D. So I stick with those for now. But "the big one" is in the back of my head...

In the mean time, I focus on making just 2 million dollars. Once I have that, I could start to make headway on this other invention. And yes, I do have a plan for making the $2 million as well.

Thanks for posting your steps.

is that 10,000,000 adjusted for inflation or ten million dollars in dollars 5 years from now ..though up to know the money goal was valid . we know live in a world where you can live anywhere and make more than enugh online to live like a king .

now a lifestyle goal plus a goal for aquired assets or created assets worth so much money

step 1 (lifestyle goal ) live on a 3 acre plot in a tropical environment ..in a good sized bamboo house with all lifes little luxuries . 100 percent off grid .. have a couple green houses growing food all year round and a larger garden ..supplying my family and quite a few others with healthy food to eat .. fresh fruits and vegtables grown in top quality soil .. and no pesticides or herbasides ..total cost is 200k-400k just working out where i want to live..and with food and water and electricty comming from the land ..living expenses will be low . it will also generate income if needed . being able to travel and stay in nice resorts ..

step 3 right now i am broke and have almost 0 debt .the date to have this finished by between december 2014 and december 2015 ..that is money earned everything paid for and no debt.

how i am very creative though my writing skills are not the best there is some writing i can do that has proven to be enjoyable to some. and my partner possible future wife has the editing and technical skills to edit what i write and we will publish to the kindle .. from there we will build a comunity around the work and add to the audience as we publish more work . looking for opportunities to earn extra money ..in ways we can't see at the moment .

i have only found the story line i want to progress with in the last week and plan to release it like episodes once the first big chunk of the story is released release a new episode every couple weeks good for a few hours of good entertaining reading . and ad a service that i write tailored stories for fans who would like to be in a couple of their own stories .

i just need a few thousand dollars at this point to get started

Nice one. "whatever the mind of a man can CONCEIVE and BELIEVE it can ACHIEVE., definitely true.

Step 1: Set a Goal
Step 2: ( Actions ) Work, work, work
Step 3: Work again

yeah that is just my base lifestyle goal ..and i might not need that much money to get there ..along with the writing ..with the garden i am studing different ways to produce a lot of food from a small area ..and once i develop an easy repeatable system that can be taught .. set up a mini resort where people can come ..stay for a few weeks eat the food and learn how to set what they can up when they get back home ..

urban agriculture is going to be a big trend in the near future as the cost of food in store continues to rise at 10-20 % a year. it just lacks funding right now for the systems out their to be rolled out.

there might even be a place for a craigslist type site where small time gardeners connect with each othe locally and with people who want their produce so they don't have to truck it to markets .

most fortunes are made by those who don't realy go against the heard of humanity ..but step out of it enough to figure out where the heard will be spending it's money and be there..
