 I spent 2 days trying to work out the best UX solution for something I’m working on.

Didn’t have anything good.

On 3rd day after a weekend, came to me in 10 mins. 
 The power of rest and passive subconscious work 
 Sometimes the magic comes in those moments between projects 
 Make sense 
 It goes to show: 90% is just showing up. Doing the thing. 

I go weeks - sometimes months - smashing on all kinds of different instruments everyday, and come up with nothing I want to build on. All of a sudden, I will smash out like 5 tracks in a week, that I love. 

I make time for it every day regardless. The muse shows up eventually. 
 The power of subconsciousness and good sleep.
