Has it happened to you when you are looking for a solution to a complex problem for days, and suddenly a clear answer magically pops up in your shampoo laden head, mid-shower? You feel ecstatic and wish you had a pencil and paper near you because you are somewhat scared you might forget it. It happens to many of us most of the time, and guess what?
