Years ago, I read an interview with Richard Branson. He said that one of the keys to his success is that he stopped seeing a difference between working and not working. I'm paraphrasing, but he basically said it was just living. He worked. He spent time with his family. He played. He worked some more. It was all just living.
Granted, that may be easier to say when you're a multi-billionaire and family time is spent on a tropical island you own. But still, I think he's given us a key.
The best creatives I've known come to work the next day and say, "Hey, I had this idea last night. What if we..."

Yeah, and looking at the photo, I can see where it sometimes might be hard to tell where the line is.
I think you where getting close with the tropical island comment.
But yeah, as creatives we should be creative in all we do all the time.. Hopefully we don't have to try too hard at that. This is the luxury of being a creative. We get to use what we are and translate that into a job.
But, I think work is an inherent part of living and something one needs to build their character. That's why when we know someone who has been handed all things in life-they tend to lack in character and integrity.
Love the photo!
