Finding time to be creative!

Why is it when I have free time to focus on my projects - I just cant seem to find inspiration, or the ability to sit still and focus. However, 5 minutes before we're about to walk out the door for a friends party I am overcome with the urge to make jewelry - ideas start coming to me. This also happens when I'm at work, sitting on my desk trying to focus on the task at hand - my creative juices start flowing and all I can think about is making a necklace. Creativity doesn't just come to you. You can't just snap your fingers and expect to create something outstanding. If that were the case I think I would have doubled my inventory by now. 
 Today for instance, I had put time aside to be creative - instead I decided to reorganize my beads and findings. Sure I have lots of great ideas - but I cant seem to focus. I will say - when I do get that stroke of creativity and I'm in the right place at the right time - I have created some pieces that I am really proud of!
