1. Honestly embrace the idea that you're a business person and don't have what it takes for an idea. A technical co-founder isn't a pair of hands to build your dreams, it's the other way around. If you don't like this approach then don't do tech, instead focus a business you know.
2. Winners love winners: Focus on execution for an existing startup. You don't need to be the CEO of that startup, but you need to build a track record of execution. You can be the sales guy who brought in the top clients or be the gumshoe who knocked on every door and raised a round.
