"my idea" there's the problem. You are elevating it to a higher status than it deserves. It's "an idea" not your idea. One of many you'll have if you stay open minded. Don't fixate on it, that's all. There are billions, trillions, maybe more, ideas, many of them great. Just focus on preparing yourself to execute on any idea. I'm speaking as someone who has had many ideas, and time and ability to execute very, very few of them.
