Some days the best source of inspiration are the shower, the woodpile, a walk, and even a run to the store for the wife. I have most recently found out about some local meet-up groups of like-minded folks. I am constantly going over ideas and trying not to compare myself to others. The pressure that I put on myself is all in my head, not theirs. Ideas are like waves, they are meant to be rode out. All the way out. Then I can say if the idea worked. We neglect an important element of our brain, it's called processing. My wife knows me well enough to ask me a question and come back later after I've had a bit to ponder. I've learned to live with it. Thanks! My work colleagues are a laptop and about 4 notepads that travel with me everywhere.

Create a partnership, a team or a group - there's strength in numbers. That said, having walked away twice from challenging jobs with barely a look over my shoulder there is always a point when having tried and tried again it might be better to move on?
