This 10 step guide provides advice on how to avoid becoming complacent in your current company job and instead take steps to think innovatively, solve problems, research and build prototypes of new ideas, find funding, and ultimately launch your own venture. The steps include quitting your current job, learning to think creatively, fixing a problem, doing research, pitching your idea, finding a cofounder, building a prototype, testing and iterating the prototype based on feedback, and fully pursuing the new opportunity you created.
