If a glint of insight comes to you, and going with this gleam of newness leads you to originate a new art form, or a new philosophy, do not be dismayed if it takes you years to polish, and formalize your new system into a coherent, brilliant, complete art form.
It is typical that the system does not spring from your imagination, fully developed, well appointed and reader-friendly and accessible. No your system emerges as a system slowly, haltingly and with gaps. The full, impressive pattern will emerge, even though you will stumble inarticulately, but it will become sharper and more appealing as you endlessly try to make it right and organized.
The beginning stumbles, the initial confusion and false starts, the meager results, the failures, the setbacks and the in-built chaos--all these front-end struggles are part of the creative process, and will bear fruit.
