Sometimes I am very inspired. I can come up with great ideas for things to write about and opportunities to explore. Sometimes I am also very motived. In my head I will plan my day and make a mental list of everything that I can get done if I just stick to it.

Unfortunately, it often feels like I am at my most creative as I am drifting off to sleep. I come up with the "perfect" phrases to put into my blog, or start planning a story. Naturally, it is just as I am most comfortable, so there is no way I am going to haul myself out of bed to write anything down.

Then the morning comes with it, having to rush to work out and get ready for work. By the time I get a moment to review my fantastic ideas from the night before, most of them are usually a bit hazy. I sometimes have a vague recollection of what seemed brilliant, but usually not quite as clear as it seemed in the evening.

It's hard to tell just how many of my ideas are truly inspired by brilliance and just lost in sleep somewhere, or how many ideas just seem brilliant because I am falling asleep.
