The library trip is important.

You can probably find the books online but getting off your seat and getting out of the house creates momentum.

You're more likely to keep taking the steps you need to take to get your business started.

In the table above, put a check next to each idea if you're willing to go and do 30 minutes of research on the Internet and go to the library to learn about the business.

Once you've actually accomplished it, check the Done box.

Don't worry if you don't have 10 ideas to fill the table. Just fill in as many as you have from Step #1 that scored over 16.

If you're not willing to commit to some online research and a trip to the library then you're probably not going to have the commitment to make that business a success and you can cross it off your list.

Similarly, if you commit to do it but don't follow through, you probably won't follow through on the business itself.

Only the ideas with a check in the Done box are worth of your attention.

If none of them are checked off then go back to Step #1. You need to find something that you're really passionate about.

If you're not willing to commit a couple of hours to the journey then you're on the wrong path.
