I've worked in IT for over a decade. I've also owned two startups years ago which didn't work due to lack of financing and lack of experience. Oddly though, I'm better financed today and have much more experience but I can not for the life of me come up with an idea for a startup that a truly believe in. Where do you get ideas from? How much do you have to believe in an idea to quit a job to pursue this? Wade,
