"La façon d'avoir des idées de startup n'est pas d'essayer de penser à des idées de startup. Il faut chercher des problèmes de préférence ceux que vous avez vous-même."
— Paul Graham

Simplified Meaning:
To come up with new business ideas, it's better not to force yourself to come up with random ideas. Instead, focus on finding problems around you, especially issues you face in your own life. For example, if you often have trouble finding parking spots in your city, this problem can be your starting point. You might then create a solution, like an app that helps drivers find open parking spaces. By solving a problem you understand well, you're more likely to come up with a useful and successful product. This approach makes it easier to think of ideas that truly help people, rather than just creating something for the sake of it. So, when you’re looking to start a business, look for everyday challenges and think of ways to make life easier.
