Option #1 Dump the idea and move on
This chapter will give you a lot of ways to turn your problem into a potential winner. But if you review them and don’t find any that would work for your situation, then the best answer is to kill the idea and move on. That’s the difference between an entrepreneur who tries a couple of ideas Before finding the one that leads to success and a bankrupt entrepreneur without the funds to start his or her next idea: The next one that might actually become successIt’s really hard for entrepreneurs, given our self-confident makeup, not to think we can be the exception.

• When Mercedes-Benz introduced its new S-class in the early 1990s, sales fell significantly short of goals. Analysis revealed that the gap between the customers’
