Take a Shower - Have an Idea!

"Everyone who's ever taken a shower has an idea. It's the person who gets out of the shower, dries off and does something about it who makes a difference."

Take a Shower - Have an Idea!
Inspiring Creativity - Nolan Bushnell Quote

That magical moment between hard work and relaxation—often during a shower—is when my best ideas float into my mind as if they’ve been waiting for just the right pause to appear. It’s like my brain has a simmering pot of creativity on the back burner, quietly bubbling up ideas while I focus on other things. Then suddenly, poof! The answer I have been chasing for days arrives fully formed! I’ve sprinted down the hallway, dripping wet, to write it down before it fades. For Queer people, it's important to turn as many of those fleeting moments of brilliance into art, connection, and action—igniting the joy that changes our world.
