IMHO the problem is talking. When you talk about your idea you receive big part of gratification for almost no effort.


I fully agree. I've seen this happen with my younger self countless times. I would get excited about an idea, tell someone all about it, and then suddenly feel less motivated to work on it. Anything I'm serious about, I try not to talk about anymore as a result.
