- There are days when writing is fun, but there are also days when you don't feel like writing. But if you're a professional, you have to write consistently regardless of your mood.
- Writing inspiration doesn't come from waiting, it comes from the process of writing consistently.
- Professionals maintain important habits even if they are not enjoyable, and they can only achieve excellence by falling in love with boredom.
There are days when writing is insanely fun, and then there are days when you just don't feel like writing anything. Sometimes, the more you try to write, the less you can. The reason may vary for everyone, but whatever the reason may be, if you consider yourself a professional rather than an amateur, you need to write even on days you don't feel like it, on sad days, and on annoying days. You have to write something, no matter how messy the writing is.
Verlorene Liebe_Carl Schweninger, Jr (German, 1854 - 1903)
The way to write on a day when you don't want to is simply to jot down anything. Even if the writing is a mess, you should become someone who writes even on days when you don't want to. Inspiration for writing doesn't come by waiting, it comes by writing and writing ahead of time.
▶ If a habit is truly important to you, you will continue it no matter how you feel. Professionals take action even when they're not feeling great. They find ways to keep doing it, even if they're not enjoying it.
▶ The only way to excel at something is to be endlessly fascinated by doing it again and again. We have to fall in love with boredom.
-James Clear, Atomic Habits
