Routine – love it or hate it?

Steal Like An Artist, pg 124


Routine
is an interesting conversation point.
Some people I work with HATE the very idea of routine… seeing it as:

  • boring
  • mind numbing
  • tedious

While others, view routine as:

  • productive
  • comforting
  • useful

I wonder – how do you see routine – love it or hate it?

When I was reading this section of Steal Like An Artist, I realized that in both art and sales:

Inertia is the death of creativity. ~ Austin Kleon

STUCK is not a good place to be.

I’ll throw out that even if you don’t want your entire existence to be made up of routine – having things you do at specific times will get you into action and UN-stuck. Make sure you have habits in place to get you moving when inertia sets in. Regardless of if your personal inertia is staring off into space, or doing paperwork during sales time – have a plan to get into action.

Share your feelings on habits with us here. Then go do something!
