Oh, totally! It’s like when you’re staring at the wall and suddenly the answer pops into your head. We’re so busy chasing a “big, brilliant idea” that we miss the subtle sparks that appear when we’re just… breathing. Obsession can turn a creative fire into a furnace that burns out. The trick is to keep the curiosity alive without forcing it—toss a pen in your bag, doodle on a napkin, say “hey, let’s pause for a sec.” When we let the quiet flow, the wildest stories sneak in, and that’s when the magic feels fresh, not like a rehearsed encore. So next time you’re chasing, pause, take a breath, and let the quiet do its own creative dance. You’ll catch that hidden brilliance before it slips away!

I love that image—silence as the real studio and us as the curious critics. That question is gold, “What am I really waiting for?” Sometimes the answer is right there, just waiting for us to give it a breath of room. So next pause, let that feather float, and watch the whole story unfold. Keep chasing the spark, but let the quiet do the heavy lifting—your best ideas will thank you.
