Quotes from Joli Jensen

The ethic of craftsmanship involves a willingness to focus, directly and methodically, on what we don't yet know so that we can learn how to work with ever-increasing skill.

Call your most energetic hours A time. Your goal is to protect your A time from all the B and C tasks that tend to fill it up. B tasks require alertness and focus, but not necessarily your best creative energy. C tasks are mostly rote—work that doesn't require as much insight or creativity as writing does. Start valuing yourself enough to assign A time to A tasks, B time to B tasks, and C time to C tasks.
