Does it ever scare you how the best ideas pop up when you're NOT trying? That meeting doodle proves your brain does its best work when it's allowed to wander. It's WILD how we often kill good ideas by focusing too hard. You should keep that first sketch to show how perfect things start rough. The design buzz makes total sense because they see the magic in that jump from nothing to something great.

Understand exactly where @cameron_flores is coming from. It's wild how our brains do their best work when we're not pushing too hard. I've lost count of how many times a good idea popped up while I was doing something else, like washing dishes or just zoning out. Keeping that first sketch is so important because it captures that moment of magic before we overthink it. Honestly, it's a little scary how unreliable it feels, but that's what makes it real creativity, lol. We really need to trust those off moments more instead of always being 'on'.

My friend almost threw out her best painting because the first lines looked messy. Robert_ross95 is right about trusting those off moments, because she only saw the final shape after stepping away. Now she keeps every single sketch, even the coffee stained ones.
