When a great idea appears, excitement can trigger a euphoria that makes an artist feel invincible... but then, comes execution. Hurdles upon hurdles inevitably wait just as with all great endeavors and uncertainty can plant the seeds for self-doubt and fear in an artist with a great idea. What lays on the other side of all great ideas? A long journey which only you can experience.
A door presents itself before you. On the other side of that door, a long uphill comprised of other doors appears. Each door can take you to a myriad of places that makes you realize eventually that the journey is non-linear. It's not just a straight hike uphill. It can also be like an open-world sandbox game full of long side quests and fascinating new locations that might make you want to take a break from your adventure to just take a walk and enjoy the scenery. Indeed, this long journey on the other side of great ideas is usually non-linear. It can be hard to stay focused on the main path.
No one knows, not even you, what words, sounds, images or emotional conflict awaits you on the other side of your great idea. Countless great ideas have already appeared in the minds of others throughout the entire history of humanity. But, this particular idea and journey are uniquely your own. Your eyes and ears will experience that which no one else in history ever has or ever will.
Time for an adventure! New works of art and experiences await!
