Peter was an inventor. His job was to invent new things, and he worked when he had an idea. His workroom was in his house, so he could work whenever he wanted to. Sometimes he worked seven days a week and sometimes he didn’t work for days. He did all his work right at home, but he left the house to go to meetings sometimes.

Peter usually got up at about five o’ clock. He made some tea and started to work at six. He drank tea all day—he couldn’t work without it—but he didn’t eat anything until in the evening.

First, Peter cleaned the workroom and turned on the answer-phone because he couldn’t talk to people when he had an idea. Then he started to work. He usually had a rest after two or three hours, but he didn’t leave the workroom. He did something different to help him relax. Sometimes he did some exercise, and sometimes he listened to music. He usually stopped working at about nine o’ clock in the evening. He thought about his work most of the time, even when he was out. He was interested in what was around him and he liked looking for new ideas and new problems to solve.
