One cannot say that bursts of creative energy don't count for anything.  They are a force of nature by themselves, and we have enough creatives  who stretch their personal boundaries and set benchmarks in  professionalism in many ways.

But we  can keep trying and figuring out better ways to go further, farther, and  deeper within, and change things, It takes discipline and  determination, and it may sometimes seem impossible, but all of these  are just milestones on the journey.

This is the audio part of a video podcast. Things are things, they work or they don't. But when they fail, we  either get frustrated with the process, the people or one's own self. As  if the mess itself weren't enough, we love to assign a reason to  things.
