    What to Do When You Spot that Opportunity

    1. Write it down.

    2. Give it time.
      Come back to it after about a week and ask yourself: Does this still make sense?

    3. Learn more.
      If it still feels good, read about it or ask people who know more.

    4. Improve the idea.
      Use what you learn to make the idea clearer and more practical.

      Keep the idea and work on it during your studies—or after you finish school.

    • You can spot an opportunity while you are still in school, and start working on it during holidays or after you finish school.
    • With time, that idea can grow into a business, create jobs, and give you influence in your community.
    • This is one of the clearest and shortest paths toward wealth and positive impact in your country.
