Spent all day writing these notes up & preparing a presentation. Only half way through but this stuff is pure gold. Hope the client likes it on Wednesday otherwise I'm fooked.

Not a good idea to sleep on it too often, otherwise the lack of blood flow will make it go numb and drop off.

Just woken back up and gone downstairs. Somebody has come along and left me 20'pages of notes with diagrams, process flows & everything!
I feel like the cobbler.

Your brain can spend so much time processing interrupts that it doesn't get chance to do the core processing.

Maybe the brain needs to relax and then it does the equivalent to processing run like in the old mainframe days. At work I often solve a problem without consciously working on it while going to make a cup of tea.

Sleeping on it.
The brain never ceases to amaze me. Having gone to bed early due to a knackering challenging week over a new complex project with no solution or with any way to even approach the analysis.
The little old brain has continued working away while I have been asleep & then at 4 O clock it gives me a gentle nudge & eureka!
In the last 1.5 hours managed to document an entire approach to analysis, proposed solution, gap analysis, challenges, timescales & key deliverables.
Done more this morning than the whole last two weeks.
