I find that its mostly inspiration--but that inspiration itself comes from perspiration. I've come up with simple but elegant ideas that turn out to be quite effective when applied, and the adaptation of idea to practice turns out to be relatively trivial. But in reality, I came up with that idea through a great deal of conscious and subconscious thought as a result of experimenting with hundreds of other ideas that failed. The "spark of inspiration" rarely is something that happens in a second, even if it seems that way initially.
