This is part 1 of a 3 part series titled “The 3 I’s of Entrepreneurship”<\/em><\/p>\n For millennials, living our dreams is the centerpiece of our canvas called life.<\/p>\n But of course, society doesn’t run off our thoughts. It takes money to move things forward.<\/p>\n The power of reflection can create wonders by pulling the ideas out of your mind and bringing them to the forefront.<\/p>\n Below are the 6 lessons we learned while creating Black Couple Travels. These lessons learned will help you accelerate your goals, too!<\/p>\n [ihc-hide-content ihc_mb_type=”show” ihc_mb_who=”3,4″ ihc_mb_template=”4″ ]<\/p>\n Let’s start with three questions:<\/p>\n Reflection time spent on realizing your talents is worth it!<\/p>\n An idea is a thought that’s planned out. Keep in mind something called the “marketplace”. It’s where people come to buy your\u00a0offerings.\u00a0Your\u00a0marketplace is your friends, family, and neighborhood.<\/p>\n When you understand the needs of the market around you, it will guide you in crafting the answers to the void of people’s desires.<\/p>\n For example, our marketplace consisted of individuals who wanted to know good places to travel and they wanted to invest beyond their 401k-pension plans. Bam! Black Couple Travels was born.<\/p>\n Let’s do an exercise.<\/p>\n Write down every idea you can think of in 10 minutes. Do not judge yourself. There is no right, wrong, or bad idea.
