Put a finger down if you wake up in the morning and you have to create something like before you do anything. And it's been this way since you've been on the earth and it doesn't always make sense. And 99.9% of the time you don't have a plan whatsoever. You just need to start creating something. So you start creating something and you're like, it's not that good. And you almost give up and they're like, no, no, no, wait, let me try it a little bit more. Let me just do a little bit more. Then you have a little bit of a breakthrough after some coffee or caffeine, and you're like, I'm going to push this all the way through. And you start to think like, this isn't normal. You shouldn't just have this urge. Like, I wish I could just wake up, eat a bacon, egg, and cheese, and stroll into an office and talk about sports. That would make life a lot easier. But the urge is just too strong. Does that happen to anyone else? No? Me neither.
