Oh man, I feel this.

I relate to this far more than I would like.

Are you kitten me?
JoordVonBastaveldt
Meow I am

As an designer...this plagues me along with imposter syndrome

I play kitten noises on my phone, when I want the cat to come to me

Me with no talents or ideas:
dontrike
For me it's the lack of talent to make many of my ideas possible.

At the beginning of the pandemic I committed to writing my book. Over a year later aannnnd…I only have 2 paragraphs. :/

Scariest thing for me is the blank page. Honestly, as soon as it appears, it's like I've walked into another room and forgot why I wentthere
KiwiGameDev
I’d recommend scribbling randomly on the first page! Destroy the scary blankness
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Those ideas look way more incredible in the middle of the night than in the cold light of day the next morning lol.

That, or after eating an edible, versus reading the idea the next day!

They come when you are open to it.. relaxed

This. Cats don't like to be chased. They'll approach you if you are calm and still
NZSheeps
Which is why shower thoughts are a thing
TomatoPepper
... for Fappening?

Whatever it takes you to relax ...

You can also find someone who’s a doer. My business partner is an ideas guy and I get things done for him. We’ve done well for ourselves.
millenniumf
I dont trust anyone to be able to execute my ideas as well as I can...
tinybleeeeeeeeeeg
Then do them yourself lol
millenniumf
I do, which is why I have zero free time.
Ardranor
careful, this is usually the part where the doer tries to scrap the thinker, and the thinker kills them
Gagerith
Fuck. I need to take an ad out for a doer
onecattwocatbigcatsmallcat
I am a doer

ColonelColon
Doer? I hardly know er'
MrSaturday
Yeah, but it's like tupperware, so many tubs and like one lid.
fknbastard
Or drummers
Nephus
Doer chooses the tub.

I like to keep a notepad open on my phone when I go to sleep, so I can copy down anything I think of while I'm in bed
DonnaNobleInTheLibrary
I have an actual notepad on my nightstand. Easier to read my tired handwriting than trying to figure out what I typed on my phone.
DonnaNobleInTheLibrary
And I can also doodle stuff that doesn't write down well.
Xedi22
I use Captio -- basically a single page notepad app with a send button (that only emails yourself). Idea pops in, I type and send.
ThrowAwayAcct0000
I will have to try this!
ThrowAwayAcct0000
Could it be called something else? I found an app for keeping track of receipts.
Xedi22
Looks iOS only. “Boomerang: email myself” might be similar, at first glance?

As a musician, I feel this deep in my being

I feel this way as soon as I get in the car… if I could play my bass with the mind I have while driving, it would be amazing
RuBisCO1
always have a notbook by your bed to write down your dreams.
JoordVonBastaveldt
Always do! Can never remember musical notes though. Last dream entry is "parents had fun at the soviet-mongol theme park in Inner Mongolia"
JdWllmsn
As a musician, I also feel this deep in my being. I very rarely don't get out of bed to let my muse lead me where it will

I dream of symphonies, wake up and play shit.
kamosey
Keep a keyboard/guitar close by. Record to your voice memos. Amazing how many ideas I would have lost otherwise.
JoordVonBastaveldt
Oh no I definitely do that, but when I'm in that bit between consciousness and sleep, THAT'S when I get ideas and I can't play music then!
Keru
AND WHY IS IT ALWAYS BAROQUE MUSIC?
MinervaMeThis
As a writer, oh yeah.
svennisiggi
I have no idea what to do next,, im really tired. In bed, im suddenly awake again and i have 3 new ideas.
JoordVonBastaveldt
Yup, and when you wake up they'll be gone! Do what you can, leave what you can't :)
svennisiggi
You can improve that bit though, i remember some of it. There are memory improvement classes and articles online.

Your prefrontal cortex is making you stick to rules. Being a bit tired or drunk makes people more "creative". Be bold, risky and confident.
JoordVonBastaveldt
Ah yes, of course because you lose all inhibitions, right? Hence make more "risky" choices, within music of course
lovingspace
That's how it "feels". Ironically it inhibits the effects of neurotransmitters in the PFC, so it works "less", so you lose your inhibitions.
lovingspace
But both can cause permanent damage, and alcohol can cause addiction. So it's best to train yourself to act "as if" without the stimulant.

Had a dream recently where there was the most wild but amazing jazz music going on, and I don't listen to jazz really and I know I've 1/2
Biopunk22
Never heard anything like it so clearly my subconscious made it up. Which is weird bc I'm a really uncreative person when I'm awake at least
trangalanga
have u tried drugs? not for the rest of your life just a little while
JoordVonBastaveldt
It's impressive what our minds create subconsciously!
Biopunk22
For sure, if only we could all unlock it, without drugs anyway
