When you are focused on "the idea" you cannot see the forest for the trees. When you are more familiar with the execution and what it takes to go from idea to successful product you realize that the idea is a smaller part of the equation then you originally thought.
Do you think that great companies like Netflix, Amazon or facebook are really doing anything revolutionary from the idea stand point? A movie rental chain, a department store and party line. They are simple everyday things that are worked upon very hard for years until they finally become a success.
I am in the opposite position. So many "good enough" ideas that is is hard to choose which one I want to be married to for the next 3 to 5 years.
