I usually pray to God, or do drugs. They both help a lot.

on-topic, since it is about the act of development on Cocoa. ^_^ So
there.
I usually don't ask the list until I've searched everywhere I can think
of and thought about it heaps, and yet even after all that, quite often
by the time I've finished composing a message to the list I've thought
of the solution. Usually after I've read a book, watched TV, done
dishes or played some mindless computer game for a while my
subconscious mind suddenly jumps up and down excitedly like the dock
icon of an app which wants my attention, and it has a fully formed idea
ready for me. I have to agree with Sam though, writing Cocoa apps is my
downtime. The other things are what I do when I either have to or if
I'm stuck with something in Cocoa (or if it's a really good TV show
like The Simpsons). :^)
