Love it… I call it yeasting instead of soaking, but it's the same thing.

“When a new creative project starts people typically take two approaches. They will either get working on it right away if they have the time (or are excited by it) or push it off till right before the deadline.” Guilty… :0)
This is a fresh perspective. Thanks

@Tabs: that's a good point. The longer a project stays on your mind and you aren't making progress on it (e.g. start and know your plan) the worse it makes you feel.

@ Trevor Lee : Thanks. you hit it on the head.

@ Melissa: Enduring. I love that- it's one huge difference between soaking and just getting it done.

This reminds me of a lesson I learned long ago in college. The papers I took my time to do are the ones that came out the best. I had honestly gotten great grades on things I threw together at the last minute, but the truly enduring papers, that I still think hold up today are the ones that I took the time to plan, investigate and rest for a bit before editing and submitting.

Thanks for reminding me of the process.
