The beauty of 'closing the loop'

Just sharing a random thought that I feel is very important, would love to get your thoughts on it as well.

I've been in startups for ~5 years now, and my big realization is that the best people know when to go all-in into an idea and close the loop: in terms of making sure resources are put behind the project, founders' approval exists, and people are championed behind it's execution

It's super easy to come up with 3-4 ideas every month, share it, move on to the next ones. Most commonly, some execution also happens, but then people eventually lose interest... they are too stuck on being an idea generator, and often times there is a missing culture of seeing things to fruition.

But the joy of having thought of something, seeing it succeed/fail, get to a logical conclusion is unparalleled. It's the most beautiful way to learn how 0 to 1 actually works, and makes sure you learn to execute, not just think. The happiness lies in seeing the early signs of success, and then some mid-stage and late-stage signs of success.

This culture within early team members makes a startup successful. It makes you successful, if you're the person behind it.

So to everyone who's still early within startups (especially early stage), try to close the loop on those ideas you find to be wonderful. You'll never again have to think about what to write on your CV or what to say in an interview.

TLDR: Execute your ideas with as much excitement as you had when you first thought of them, don't lose track.

From other operators, would love to get your thoughts on this. What have you seen? Do you feel differently?
