Don't fret about finding The Big Idea (or even not having a List of Possible Big Ideas to choose from).
I'm sure you get small ideas now and then. When you do, don't think about them too much, just jump on them, especially if they're small enough to finish in a couple of days. Something Bigger might grow out of one of them. If not, hey, it still beats spending that time watching TV or reading Reddit.
You must have at least one friend who thinks sort of the same way you do. Bounce silly ideas off them. Create a mindset - for both yourself and for them - where you look at everyday activities and events through the perspective of "what can I do with this?", and chat with them about ideas regularly.
