      You should try the Japanese method called Kaizen. It combats laziness. The goal is to do your desired task for at least 1 minute. Chances are you are going to keep going. My art has improved dramatically using this method. Very effective.

    So what happens when you find too much inspiration, in the sense that
    you find too many things? Like, you find 7 different artists that you
    want to emulate and take from, but you find yourself overwhelmed because you don't know which way to go?
    Or is that a different thing altogether?

    the hardest thing is sitting your ass down and starting to work, and that involves study. natural art can come from within, sure, but isn{t it amzing when you build on practical knowledge AND let that creativity come through?

    I haven't watched American television for 15 years. No regrets. I embody that Nicolas quote, but little by little try to overcome it. And to answer Stan's question it's not about not using the knowledge, it's about trying to find the right process of learning, that in trying to find the right one, you wind up having pieces of them all that your knowledge becomes very deep.

    The answer to addiction (any addiction) is not "more discipline ", because if you could establish that discipline you wouldn't be addicted in the first place.
    It requires an understanding of the causes and a subsequent mind shift.

      @@kullenberg Most big podcasts don't label the episode numbers in the clips' title (or from what I've watched). They keep it anonymous as to what episode it is so that it is more available to a general audience. It is easier to search for and more accessible when the episode number is squished into the title.
