Nobody is going to do it for you.

"Writers have to jump-start themselves at the moment of performance, no less than actors and dancers and painters and musicians. There are so writers who sweep us along so strongly in the current of their energy—Norman Mailer, Tom Wolfe, Toni Morrison, William F. Buckley, Jr., Hunter Thompson, David Foster Wallace, Dave Eggers—that we assume that when they go to work the words just flow. Nobody thinks of the effort they made every morning to turn on the switch.

"You also have to turn on the switch. Nobody is going to do it for you."
