+1, building is 5:1 more about momentum and confidence than about actually building stuff
if you have a "great idea" on the subway but forget it before you got home, it had no momentum. this does not materially change if you write the idea down, or even vibecode a full implementation WHILE ON THE SUBWAY - if you don't pick it up again after the subway ride is over, it had no momentum, it was therefore not a "great idea"
the only way it truly deserves the title "great idea" is if you think of it, plan it, execute it, deliver it, use it, adopt it personally, and continue to improve the system, build enough confidence that it is novel and useful to sell it, then begin to market and sell it and get other people using it too
