I worked with Charley Barsotti (cartoonist for the New Yorker, USA Today, Playboy, many others) for nearly 20 years. Above his computer screen was a quote from Chuck Close: "Inspiration is for amateurs. Professionals show up and get to work." And work, I think, looks a lot like the Oatmeal cartoon above.
Great post, loved the Matthew Inman cartoon! Now I need to get to work ... thanks
