"I never could have done what I have done without the habits of punctuality, order, and diligence, without the determination to concentrate myself on one subject at a time."
English Novelist
1812 - 1870
What are your work habits? Do you meet deadlines? Are you able to focus and concentrate on what you are doing? While no two people have the same work habits, you can learn to improve your work habits by studying the habits of others. Are you organized? Do you have a system for keeping track of your work? There is also the business side of creative work. You have to be of two minds — the creative mind and business mind. Do you know how to promote yourself? To sell your work? What are your habits? How can you improve your habits? Do you rise at 5 am before everyone else wakes up? Do you work best at night? Do you listen to music or do you prefer silence? Do you take long walks to clear your mind and energize your creative juices?
