How many times have you been hanging out with your friends or doing something completely random and have an idea just pop into your head? It happens all the time, especially when you’re not thinking about it. I’m going to give you an inside satirical look at someone’s thought process when this happens.

#1 You have an “AH, HA!” moment and think you can become a millionaire over night

Every so often you have an idea that pops into your head that makes you smile. You came up with an idea that will make you millions!

#2 Everyone will want to use this, they just don’t know about it yet

It is such a genius idea that once everyone starts to use it, they will never know how they lived without it.

#3 To tell or not to tell?

If I tell everyone, they will steal my idea! If I don’t tell anyone, I can’t get feedback or help. I’ll make them sign an NDA!

#4 They will pay for it… only if I give it away for free first – Freemium!

I’ll give it to my friends, family and a few other people once it’s ready. Once a few people have it, everyone will want it.

#5 Get thousands of Facebook “likes” and twitter followers

This is the easy part, I have a lot of friends and who doesn’t want to be apart of such a good idea?

#6 Design a website and platform

Hire a few programmers and designers to build an awesome looking and interactive website that will sell my product.

#7 I need money! Let me ask for $500,000 because I can

Investors will be throwing money at me to start this company.

#8 Execute

This will only take a few weeks.

#9 Execute

Maybe a few months.

#10 Execute

Ok, maybe a few years.
