The strategy is to have a practice, and what it means to have a practice is to regularly and reliably do the work in a habitual way.

[…]

The notion that I do my work here, now, like this, even when I do not feel like it, and especially when I do not feel like it, is very important. Because lots and lots of people are creative when they feel like it, but you are only going to become a professional if you do it when you don’t feel like it. And that emotional waiver is why this is your work and not your hobby.

“You are wonderful,” he said with a smile.

"

The original New York Times obituary for Sherlock Holmes creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, born on May 22, 1859, who died of a heart attack on July 7, 1930.

Honor him with a wonderful read on how to think like Sherlock Holmes.
