Your primary source of inspiration?
jhancock: inspiration? or motivation?I find that inspiration mostly makes me daydream of all the wonderful things I'm "going to do".I find I usually need motivation to get them done.  I find that precursors to motivation, for me, are be happy and get a good nights sleep.[EDIT] let me add more to the "be happy" issue.  It doesn't well describe things.  Software is never "finished".  One technique I have learned to coupe with this un-motivating feel of something never being done is to find simple things that give me pleasure that have a fixed ending.  For dinner tonight I made a tasty hand crafted sandwich.  It took 10 minutes to make and 10 to eat.  I enjoyed it and felt satisfaction for a job well done.  Then I went back upstairs and was productive.  Some people find jogging or other exercise a great method.  It has a clear ending and you feel good.
