"Do what you have to do now, so you can do what you want to do later."

On his blog, Seth Godin warns against the "I-don't-feel-like-it" syndrome.

As artists, we often feel the need to be "inspired" before beginning some sort of work; we need to be "in the mood." However, according to Mr. Godin, this approach borders on self-complacency and laziness.

It's not called leisure, it's called work because its difficult.

"... Your feelings are irrelevant to whether or not the market expects great work. Do the work. Ignore the feelings part and the work will follow."- Seth Godin
