Help more people!


  1. Help People
  2. Find a Niche ( area of expertise or what you can do best)
  3. Learn to Scale or Cater more people effectively and efficiently without burning out 
  4. Translating ( How do you translate or relate people to your field of work). Make it Simple and Easy for others to understand what you do and how its useful for others.
  5. Staring Small( Always start with something very small and grow with time and add more useful what is needed features in your services, It can be anything very simple; and Then market your product or service with a good marketing campaign.
  6. Pitfall - Hopefully the new features you are building are based on communication with your existing customers and from talking to other people that you hope to help. The problems come when you try to help person A and in doing so you do a disservice to person B and C. You do something that does not help them and actually hinders them. You try to rectify the problem by giving person B extra help (adding a feature they requested) and then doing something similar for person C. Unwittingly you’ve now annoyed person A and C with your update for B, and likewise for the update for C. On a larger scale A, B and C would be groups of people or communities.

    You can please all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but you cannot please all the people all the time” 
    – P. T. 
  7. Finding the Balance: The skill in building a great product or service is finding the balance in the needs of the people you are helping.

    If you answer all the needs then your software will be complicated, feature-heavy, hard to design and hard to use.

    If you ignore the needs of the people you are helping you will become quite lost.

    If you work with averages, then your software will be average. You need to listen to your customer to figure out who they are and what they need.

    They may tell you what they need, but they can only tell you what they think they need based on their experience of your current product and of the products of your competitors.

    A single person with needs usually only focuses on their own needs and not the collective needs of all the people that you are trying to help.

    If you really want to help them then you have to figure out what the collective needs are and how you can address those needs most effectively.
  8. Concern on Collective needs rather than on individual needs; Individual need will complicate the service for larger user base. Always listen to the customer or the people you are servicing or helping them
