"Aha" moments to solving puzzling problems have come to me when I was:

  • in the shower
  • commuting to home

Solutions often come to mind when one is not thinking about the problem.

Well, considering that little fact, that my "Aha!" moments are almost every time lead to the "That New Problem that could've be evaded if i didn't done This or That already", you can think that's when I read language docs in n-th time...
And you would be right!
