Thomas Edison said "Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration". While that might be true for the 0.0001% of the population which are geniuses, i find this more accurate:
"Creative work is 70% relaxation, 15% inspiration and 15% perspiration."

Movie of the month: "The Square" - by dir. Ruben Östlund, 2017: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Square_(2017_film) Haven't laughed this hard due to a movie in ages. Highly recommended, super smart & dry nordic comedy.
Reclaim your autonomy: https://www.counterpunch.org/2018/04/12/turn-on-tune-in-drop-out-of-social-media/
Thus we return to Brian Chen’s advice: cold turkey. Take personal responsibility for your own social life. Go back to engaging flesh and blood people without tech companies serving as an intermediary. Eschew the narcissistic impulse to broadcast the excruciating minutiae of your life to the world. Refuse to accept the mandate that you must participate in social media in order to participate in society. Reclaim your autonomy.
The parallels between using twitter and smoking nicotine are striking: A constant stream of micro rewards keeps one firmly focused on a virtual future, resulting in stress in the present moment. Unsustainable.
