   I have an idea brewing in my mind for a future project, but I want this project to help people solve their problems.  So, as a little research, I'm curious to find out what problems need solved the most.
   
   So, what problem or issue do you have in your life right now that you desperately need to solve?
   
   Something that you are actively looking for a solution for... it might even keep you up at night thinking about it.
   
   We all have problems that need solved, and hopefully the discussion gained here can help me, and the team of people working with me, find that solution for you. 
   
   And yes, if your input helps me with this project then I'll send you the most desired solutions, for free, as a thank you for helping out.

   Not here on HubPages but on other helpdesks that I pop into every so often, the most popular question seems to be "Who is the father of my baby"? The question is posted by someone who has two possible fathers for her unborn child in mind and doesn't know which one to "blame"! As far as I can see, in most of these cases, the only solution is a paternity test after the baby is born.
   
   As far as I personally am concerned, the biggest problem I need to solve is how to clone myself, so I can do all the things I "want" to do as well as all the things that other people "need" me to do for them! LOL

      DreamerMeg!
      omg! I had a conversation about just that today. I told the person if I could "clone myself", I would. I started thinking about it as the day went on. And I realised i can't *BE* everything to *everyone* unless I let me *BE* me first. My happy thoughts sending your way. Give yourself a treat with a good book and a favorite desert! thank you for the da ja vu

   Hi Bendo,
   
   My biggest problem, especially with freelance writing, is my procrastination.  How, oh, how can writers who have to manage their time effectively get past this. 
   
   "We" apply for about 20 jobs or more per month, then get all of them at once, and for me I can find just about anything else to do before finishing a deadline.  Once I get to the computer, my mind goes blank as does my motivation......
   
   Thanks!!

      I am having exactly the same problem. I need to become self-sufficient in less than a year and I procrastinate with writing...
      
      I always have an excuse, right now it's a broken fibula that causes pain and makes it hard to sit at the computer for too long.

      Thanks, Jen!
      
      I definitely know what you mean and that's a great problem to solve.  It seems like we avoid that initial step but, once you take it, it's like hmmm... this really isn't that bad!  I'm keeping a tally of all the problems and hope to help solve them for you!

   Hi Bendo,
   
   My biggest problem is I need a team of people to help me with a project I am doing.
   The project is to show how many folks can sucessfully work at one time working on
   an assignment. There is a deadline and trying to gather and encourage folks to
   let's do this! I am thinking about 200 people to be on this team. So? Would you know
   200 people and how do I gather them to work with one (me) in a project they too
   would get paid for, have fun doing and there is a party afterwards!
   
   Thanks!   I will stop by soon
   
   Jo

      Thanks, Jo!
      
      It seems like outsourcing is another popular area.  I would suggest posting a job on a freelance site like Elance or Guru.  Jen encouraged me to brush off my old profile and pick up some jobs from there, and if you explain in detail the job you need done, I'm sure you can get help from all over the world.
      
      And, depending on the tasks and pay, I may even be able to be one of those 200.  But thanks for your input; it appears I have 2 equally important problems to solve so far.

         please look for what I had in mind which will be in the forums soon. Like tomorrow. It involves everyone here on Hub Pages and those who decide to join in. The pay is something I hope to be a blessing for everyone who needs one in their life right now. Thanks Bendo!

      I guess just keep your eyes peeled for what Jo is going to be working on.  It looks like she'll need a lot of help and it should benefit everyone involved.

         I am looking for everyone to share what they feel about this country now and share the background of your memories of where we came from? how do you think this election will help us and will we be better in 4 years from now? How come it took over 30 years for the Lillyledbetter fair pay act for women to happen? How come we have spent 10 years at war?
         Why does everyone throw money at negative press ads when throw the money at US writers to write a book, make an audio CD of inspirational , heartfelt messages and then go to a party when we are all done. Don't forget the camecorder! Let's record individual 5 min segments that can be watched by our troops over in Iraq and afgahanistan!  Remember M.A.S.H.?  We had USO's going over there to build morale. Why not create
         something they can hold in their hands, listen on the CD players and watch a video of Americans showing them we showed the politicians how to work together? Dems and Republicians, black, white, gay or not. Believe in God or not. The proof is in their hands to read, listen and watch!
         
         I am making inroads on Twitter ect. this could go National. We need US to do the same grassroots the Politicians are doing.
         
         The media slapped down a budding director for making a documentary about a women who approached Romney to see what kind of response she would get. CNN starting point called it a "mockery" because the woman who shared how she lost her job, losing her house, husband lost work really wasn't "true" in her personal life.
         Yet, it is very much true. Her neighbor next door, the other part of her state. They all have a family member who will be affected by how we vote!  If we work together. There is a good chance it can be ready for public by Nov 3rd. They want OUR vote? They buy a book!
         Several of them. Those who don't buy we don't vote!  What do you say?
         
         The GOP have tried to mess with the voter registration. Not the Dems. Pa court stopped the bill to pass because of it being to close to election. We can get the word out about this project, and get the government to pay for the jobs which will be created by  doing this. Let's pressure, pander to them! We ask questions they have pre arranged answers for. Let's see what kind of pre arranging it will be to get this hushed. We all need to write in blogs, tweets, facebook, blogger, Tumbler and those who can afford a website. I happen to know of one for $7.00 a month. Then we link each others work to all the locations to make one big *map* of American voices of reality!  I have read many who have started a hub expressing thoughts of concern and some humorous too. Those folks are ahead of the project.
         
         If you have already written one, let's share it. Place it inside two book covers and I am 100 % sure I have a great genius to do the book cover!
         
         
         Does this sound like The Spirits of US who wish to make a peaceful protest by using the power of the pen, not the sword!
