I have been living in United States for more than 5 years. I
learned so many things and I am still learning. One of thing I have learned is
to look for opportunity in your problem. If you have any problem, then your problem
brings lots of opportunity.

For example:

a)     
Drinking and driving. Drinking and driving kills
lots of people. 80% of road accidents are caused due to alcohol related factor.
Problem: Drinking and Driving. Opportunity: 
Giving tickets to the people who drink and drive.  Using money generated from tickets to raise
awareness and make better roads.

b)     
Smoking. Smoking causes lots of heath problem.
Opportunity:  Charging higher tax for
cigarette and tobacco products. 
Increasing the cost of insurance for people who smokes. Using those
money to do cancer research.

c)      
Captchas: Captchas are those images which you
see when you sign up for something and you have to write the text that is in
the image. This is done for security purposes. Opportunity:  Starting a business which breaks those
captchas. Beatcaptchas.com is one of the websites which can breaks captchas.
All the images are read by people in India and other country and send back the
text in the image so that programmer can automate the process.

All I want to say is that are lots of problem in my life and
in my country, but that means there are lots of opportunity.  Americans are great finding out business and opportunity
when there are problem. Talking to your American friends about your problem in
your country and in your life might brings some ideas.

May be through this post, we can talk about the problems and
try to find a solutions. But, one very important thing is that we donot want to
talk about politics and carried away. Another, we can focus more on business
and ideas that comes with problems.
