Complete isolation worries me that the idea may not get validated in the first place, and you may waste all that time as a result.


Your idea has already achieved validation from you, short of that your work validates itself by existing in a functional state.

Besides, nobody knows what people want. Who would have guessed that the world needed another site to post and comment on photos? Would you validate that idea? Yet Pinterest thrives. Just do it, then tell people.


Isolate yourself from your friends, family, and people who know you. But not your potential customers.
