Hey guys! I'm working on a new blogpost for my blog about "deadly" ideas and I'm very curious what you think about that topic.<p>Would you agree that there are ideas which can almost kill you? Of course not literally, but those ideas wipe you off completly and leave you demotivated, lost and frustrated. On the beginning everythig looks awesome, you are sure that you going to change the world and your goals are clear. You know that your idea exist to solve some certain problem. You are trying to implement your idea to solve that problem. Sometimes though problem is starting to diminish and the idea becomes a goal itself. You are no longer interested in solving any problem, you only care about making your idea working. You completly loose touch with the reality, doubts and fact against your idea don't reach you. I think you can see clearly how dangerous a bad idea can be. They are parasites, because they kill your project and your motivation.<p>I have one expierience with neglecing reality and falling for a "deadly" idea - I don't wish anybody similiar stories. Hopefully we realised what's going on after a year, pivoted with all determination and left the "deadly" idea behind. We saved our business and it's going well.<p>I'd like to write about distinguishing "deadly" ideas from good ones. How do you validate your ideas? What's your favourite methodology? Can you share your stories about experiences with "deadly" ideas? I hope all your stories finished with happy-end!<p>I'd love to add reference to your projects and comments in my post, so please leave some contact info if you want to contribute and safe others form falling for a "deadly" idea:)
