"Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working." [Quotables]

Pablo Picasso's quote about inspiration and work reminds us that great ideas and eureka moments arise from everyday work. You have to at least be thinking about a topic or problem before you can find a creative solution.

Whether you work in a creative or other type of field, it's those long hours staring at a blank screen or piece of paper that generate opportunities for inspiration to strike. (Conversely, if you never sit down to write or draw or practice whatever your art is, you'll never give the muse a chance.) Image remixed from an original by uttam gurjar/Shutterstock.
