I used to have that problem all the time. Pick your favorite idea, one that you've had for a long time, and write the beginning down. It might take a few times before you can really keep going with it, but I found an idea I liked, and when I finish the book, I wish to get it published. Good luck!

Just carry some post-it notes around and when you get an idea, write it down.

Sometimes what happens to me is that I waste too much time trying to think of a good way to start the story and end up losing interest. You might want to try starting in the middle, or wherever the excitement happens.
