It's funny because my friends who are musicians or work with art and such all have a process to get creative. That don't sit around waiting for it, they strive towards it. I've heard and read the same from both books and online that most creative people have a process which they use to become inspired. Which is not to say that you can't just suddenly have a moment of sudden inspiration, just that they are far more rare than the creativity you work for.
