SERIOUSLY Psyphon, did you read my mind just now? Chaos is fuel to my mind, everything works better when there is pressure or stress, stops the procrastination and the daydreaming and forces me to get down to business, it cuts out all the waffling and makes me a lean, mean ideas machine.
I like to be around people when I generate ideas, not for their input but just to talk at like a sounding board, they are like a distraction so my brain can work more.
late night/early morning is when I'm most creative by myself, I have to paint or write songs until I'm exhausted, otherwise I can't sleep cause there are too many ideas in my head.
My job involves a structured system that I have redesigned to suit me, it is fairly monotonous now that I have perfected it, but I work with my hands so I am now free to just think all day about whatever I want while I work, it is great.
And I love when I am talking to certain people and there is that connection where you are both on that ideas wavelength, you know what I mean, that is a beautiful thing. Used to happen with me and my INFP best friend, we'd sit at my table and drink and just write stuff, stories and songs, or draw, and if we'd have a jam session we could just improv for hours cause there was that idea connection.
So.. I don't quite know if that even answered the question.
