Love the story! Interestingly, it usually works the other way round with my paintings. Whenever I decide a work is finished, at least some hours later my mind bombards me with things like "no, no, it´s not finished. And it will never be, because it will never be good enough. Maybe you should change this or that? No, won´t even work. You´d better paint it completely over". And so on. :) So ... I think most artists have to deal with some kind of thoughts that try to sabotage one´s creativity.
