“This is a paradox to me: many of us start off worrying that we will ‘lack the discipline’ to do morning writing. When we are willing to try writing anyway, we find soon enough that morning writing does not take discipline-- but it does make discipline.”
Congratulations on doing this! I set aside four hours every Saturday morning to have dedicated time for creativity. It might be editing photos, it might be creating photos, it might be focusing on a photography book in my collection, it might be drawing, it might be writing, it might be coffee with another creative to swap ideas. The point is that I ensure that I have that time set aside and protect it with a passion. It's far too easy to say "I'll do something else this week". I think having this set aside has allowed me to focus on a longer term project and really hone in on what I want to do.

That's great, Tom - I love that.
