Great Ideas

I've had tons of great ideas since i was little. I write out my ideas, hoping someday I would end up doing one. My ideas kept piling up but I realize that no matter how many ideas i write down, if i am not motivated to do anything about them, what is the point of it all? I'm sure some people might call me negative but, is it really so good to be an optimistic person? hoping for the best and just waiting there like a fucking retard until you come into a realization that the best will never come.
