You'd be surprised at how many others are on here doing just what you describe. First, your excited to have found all this awesome info, so then you delve in, finding more and more exciting ideas, ways, and techniques. Then you decide to start to put one together and you come up with more ideas, then you come back here looking to see if anyone else had YOUR idea and what THEY did.. regardless as to if you find it or not, you then see another 20 new posts that intrigue you to read on thus further digging yourself into the deep dark underground world of information overload.
Now you have 200 business "ideas" and no freakin business. You might even start mixing them all up in your head and have to come back and re-look them up, thus repeating the cycle of seeing 20 new amazing, thought provoking posts. A guy (or girl) could grow a few gray hairs while trying to get out.
Here is my thought: What do you LIKE. What idea do you keep venturing to more than the rest? there must be at least one, if not a few.
Find IT, then get all the info, tools, software and such to do THAT idea. Then get your @$$ off of here and work!
You'll feel that little pull of the blackhatted darkness as you venture onward but ignore it as much as you can. Make a rule that you only will come in to look for tools that you need for this business adventure, or find one of the others you like and plan to do later. (or to contribute a find) Store the info/tool/whatever and don't go searching for anything else! Checkout the "help me" posts and be a good citizen and then go back to work.
That's the best I can tell you. If you read and don't do, you won't get anywhere. One guy here has a saying in his sig, something about you read and study for 5 hours and work for 1 and then give up and thats why you're broke. So true.
If you have no skills, try articles. Checkout shacksquach (sp?)'s article rewriting trick, go to the make money section and check out subjects rather than the whole string, then pick what you CAN do starting THIS Week, if not TODAY and go do it.
Ewhoring.. getting old but will work to some degree
Articles. the good old standby
ebay. hate em, but it works for many.
Site flipping
blog flipping
blog farms
Pay per install.
It goes on. so many amazing shares in here.
If it helps (and it does me) just pick the 5 you REALLY like and feel you can do. then start with one. block everything out but that one.. and remind yourself that you can do more/others later. everything doesn't have to be utilized RIGHT NOW. That's where i get stuck. There is time to do other projects later.
butcha gotta start somewhere.
Good luck!
