You are so right on with the "ideas are cheap, execution is what matters", I often say this exact thing to myself. Mostly to remind my own ENTP self to focus on the exisiting projects and stop coming up with 10 more intangible ideas, fun as that may be. I think this is the struggle for ENTPs in many careers. On the bright side, once you reach a certain level of seniority in research, you do focus more on generating ideas and leave many of the details to others. So there is hope :) Good luck!
