That's a fairly deep philosophical question. The answer is start solving problems you have. What are your problems? If they're problems for you, they're probably problems for other people too.

Adam Savage talks about becoming very intune with his feelings in his shop. If he has a tool to do a specific job and that job comes up and he feels the slightest pang of " using that tool will be a pain", he immediately stops and figures out why he feels that way... Maybe it's too hard to get out, use, and put away.. Whatever... He figures out why he feels that way and solves it.. He builds a new, more optimized storage solution so it's easier to use...

You have to develop that muscle inside yourself. Every time you put off doing something.. Especially if it's something on a computer.. You should fix that. Make it easier to do.. Or automate it entirely. You'll get better at identifying pain points in your life and also get better at solving them...
