"There's a secret that real writers know that wannabe writers don't, and the secret is this: It's not the writing part that's hard. What's hard is sitting down to write." - The War of Art by Steven Pressfield

Get the routine down, build the habit before focusing on getting good at it. Getting momentum is fare more important than quality at the start. - First you have to get the ball rolling, before you can start directing it where to go.

Break free from perfection. So, if you want to get good at what you do, and get there faster than anyone else, throw away perfection and quality, and focus on raw output. Do it fast, bad, and wrong as quickly and consistently as you can.

Trust me, you will learn and find your own way much faster than anyone else you know because you are willing to put in the work and understand that "perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor" - Anne Lamott. Or another way of saying it, prolific over prefect.
