For me, it lasts a little while, and then I seem to get a sudden burst of creativity. As a result, I don't really sweat it to much.<BR/><BR/>Do you think your are overthinking, overstressing...and maybe that is making it to hard on you?<BR/><BR/>I just think that sometimes we put so much pressure on ourselves to produce something that it really numbs our creativity.

Do you think I've touched any of it since then? Nope. It's a bizarre problem for me and one that drives the husband batty.Irishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261059003017549101noreply@blogger.com
