I think there is a massive difference between your own judgement of an idea and others' judgement of it. The latter has to go through difficulties in expressing the idea and the justification of it, and in the understanding, by a different person, of those details. I think the "ideas are cheap" / "good ideas seemed terrible" thing is mostly from the perspective of other people. If that's true then individuals shouldn't take it too seriously when it comes to their own ideas.
