I have these ideas swimming around in my brain. Some things I forget and regret forgetting because they were awesome ideas. Many ideas I write down but I hope no one ever stumbles upon them and think I'm crazy. I want to write stories, direct movies, build thingies, design computer gamies, etc. But I often feel satisfied just jotting down the ideas and imagining the works of art in my mind. I want to make a profit off of my ideas and earn fame, but what I want even more is to procrastinate and daydream.
I want to build my own computer, but my parents think that it's unwise and so I daydream about the computer components and imagine what an awesome system I could build, after doing extensive (almost obsessive) research on them. Just coming up with a list of parts and thinking how they'd work as a system is enough to satisfy.
As you can imagine I don't have many friends as I am always in my own world thinking of stuff. I don't go out too often and if I do it's to go to college or work.

The shortest distance between having an idea and its realization is writing. You can write your ideas as poetry, short stories, essays, a novel, tv or movie scripts, etc.
Each form of writing is a craft and, when you get experienced enough at the craft, an art. It's fun and exciting to turn your ideas into this kind of stuff.
I have a couple of erotic poems on my 360 page. You can see how these developed from ideas.
Start now! The sooner you learn the craft, the sooner you can share your ideas with the world and possibly even support yourself.

I'm the same!I also lack motivation, but unlike you, I am afraid of failure and criticism!You seem to be confident of your ideas, and can actually see it in your head. I can think of something to a certain point, and then the fear of failure and ridicule grips my mind and I draw a blank, which means i scrap wonderful ideas. You seem like you can do whatever you put your mind to; don't let your parents' ideas of what will work put you off. Imagine what Bill Gates' mother thought of him when he started out!No one could've known how far his powerful ideas would take us!Do something for yourself or you'll end up blaming them. And you'll blame yourself for not having made a move earlier. Do one thing to completion, even if its small. When its done, you'll be satisfied to the extent that you will want to carry on taking chances on yourself. It becomes a habit. You also seem dedicated, what with all the obsessive research you've done. It feels good to doze off and dream of what could be, but think of how much prouder of yourself you will be when you do something immediately. Another tip: try acting on ideas immediately: if you think of something, go out and get the materials needed and start!tell your limbs to move, dare yourself to just go!Good luck, and I hope we see you in future as a mega star!Have faith!

With all the ideas floating around in my head, I became so creative that I decided to write a novel which is no joke. So I am writing a vampireques novel called "Blank"... "Blank"... You should write a novel to clear your thoughts up too. Its fun and it really helps improve your English skills.
No the novel is not called "Blank". I just don't have a proper name for it yet. =)
Don't worry, in this world you are soo sure to survive. So, just keep smiling and every day will always feel different and new and just as good as if eating a hot fudge sundae!!

Ideas are good but make an effort to start at the small and immediately achieve able ones and as you see your success you'll be motivated to follow the rest through.Good luck!!!!

Well, you have to learn how to socialize with friends who have the same interest with you so that you guys can develop good ideas and take it into action together. No man is an island.

nobody can motivate you to do anything but yourself.
it sounds like youre passonate about your ideas, so you should take your passion and actually do something about it.
i myself like to design clothes, i have the same problem - i love thinking of new designs and drawing them out and imagining the fabrics, but it takes me forever to start the actually execution. the hardest thing for me is getting started, once i get started i cant stop.
its just taking the first step thats the hardest
