ONE INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHT
“That’s the great secret of creativity. You treat ideas like cats: you make them follow you. If you try to approach a cat and pick it up, you know what happens? The cat runs away. So if you have an idea and you try to run after it and tackle it and put it in a cage, it’s going to run away. But if you ignore it, go about your business, and just do something else, the idea will come over and start rubbing against your leg, and say, ‘Here I am. Pet me.” — Ray Bradbury (Zen in the Art of Writing, 1990)
