This is why I work at a company. I have ideas all the time, but they are in the context of work. It’s there that I can work on stuff, and I like to think some of it is worthwhile.

I don’t think everyone needs to have a bunch of side projects related to their day job. I’m sure most plumbers don’t spend their nights and weekend creating and solving ever more complicated plumbing projects in their home. I think it’s nice if a person can have a hobby that scratches an itch that is completely different from their day job.
