The Daily Habits Of Highly Creative People (Infographic).

There are only so many hours in the day. There’s only so much one tiny, 3-pound collection of human neurons can handle. There’s only so much outside world you can afford to cram down your pipes. So don’t overload your system. Choose carefully.

It’s only after you stop trying to do everything, that you really start getting anything done. Exactly.

Steal your business model. We don’t have a shortage of business models, it’s okay if you pick one that’s already working for someone else.

Steal your web design. There will always be enough people brave enough to invent whole new ways of interacting online. But unless you’re an interaction designer or your business model depends on something new, do us all a favor and use something that already works.

Steal your tools. You probably don’t need to build a new email delivery engine, a new overnight shipping method or a new way to run payroll. Once someone has a reliable, cost-effective building block, feel free to use it.

When it comes down to the thing you will be known for, your uniqueness, your gift, your thing worth talking about–don’t steal that. Writers shouldn’t steal words from other writers, and chemists have no need to steal the research of other chemists. Sure, go ahead and invent.

For the rest, honor those that came before and use their work as a building block for yours.

h/t David Kanigan…

When the light around you lessens

And your thoughts darken until

Your body feels fear turn

Cold as a stone inside,

When you find yourself bereft

Of any belief in yourself

And all you unknowingly

Leaned on has fallen….

Steady yourself and see

That it is your own thinking

That darkens your world,

Search and you will find

A diamond-thought of light.

— Excerpt from For Courage by John O’Donohue
