Quotes by Paul J. Silvia  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You don't need special traits, special genes, or special motivation to write a lot. You don't need to want to write--people rarely feel like doing unpleasant tasks that lack deadlines--so don't wait until you feel like it. Productive writing comes from harnessing the power of habit, and habits come from repetition

p.129”
Paul J. Silvia, How to Write a Lot: A Practical Guide to Productive Academic Writing

“Never reward writing with not writing. Rewarding writing by abandoning your schedule is like rewarding yourself for quitting smoking by having a cigarette.”
Paul J. Silvia, How to Write a Lot: A Practical Guide to Productive Academic Writing

“Revising while you generate text is like drinking decaffeinated coffee in the early morning: noble idea, wrong time.”
