On "happy accidents": If you're working when an "accident" happens, you want to immediately apply it by incorporating it into what you're doing, or fixing it without breaking it further. Great artists and musicians are masters of seizing the beauty in randomness. There has to be a part of you that impels you to pay attention to the ideas that you are being given. Art is in the paying of attention, and having enough energy (and skill) to pull them off.
