They have breaks after all for a good reason, and even when I think that I can't postpone the job I found that by taking 30min off sometimes when my eyes hurt and just going outside gives me more ideas, better state of mind and feeling fresher and more ready to get to work rather than just grinding myself for another hour trying to work when my body says no.

For those that have embraced this I say kudos. To those lagging behind, there's never been a better time to join the party, or they may get lost in the ever growing noise we're all making. David,

With access to smart phones and other internet appliances (i.e. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) access to information and the ability to share our thoughts with each other has forced businesses to change their strategies. This new shift has forced businesses to embrace practices usually associated with the field of psychology in order to develop successful marketing campaigns. It’s all about hearts and minds.

I definitely go thru waves as well, my guess would be all people (even non-creative types) do, we however, have to find the best way for ourselves to deal during these situations. Thanks! Alex,

I definitely go thru waves as well, my guess would be all people (even non-creative types) do, we however, have to find the best way for ourselves to deal during these situations.

I often find that I go into fits and spurts of inspiration and motivation. Having a partner for projects helps keep me on track - it helps to have someone to bounce ideas off, and to keep each other accountable. Cheers Alex Great post – it’s a good insight into maintaining eagerness for varied projects.
