If you feel it's garbage, don't work on it. :-) Many startups fail because of execution problems, many fail because they are too early, many fail because they are too late. And yes, some fail because the idea doesn't look good. There is no reason to waste time on the 80% (or 99%) of ideas that don't look good.

But.... Many great ideas didn't look so hot at the time. Instagram? Does the world need one more startup doing photos? Snapchat? Text that doesn't stick around? Really? Of course hindsight corrects us.
