Great article Ali.

About finding a problem to solve, If possible I would try to find a real problem that someone is having. Think about boring things that you or your friends and family have to do regularly that could be solved by tech.

Or if it´s not enough, look around you and try to find common problems affecting a group of people.

After you find your problem, I believe focus and prioritization are really important and it's a thing I struggle a bit as I have many ideas and technologies that want to try at the same time which is not very productive.

I think like you said, defining the MVP and identify the key features and prioritize them, splitting them into smaller tasks can help a lot.
