Every problem you run into is a creative prompt in disguise. Stop complaining and start sketching fixes.

Friction points at the places where something was never designed properly, which makes it the most reliable source of ideas you have. The default response is to describe the annoyance, which is satisfying and leaves the annoyance exactly where it was. Turning the same energy toward a sketch costs no more and produces something.

Take one thing that irritated you this week and spend ten minutes designing around it. The fix does not have to be good, or even possible. The shift is in what you do with the noticing.
