This then is a summary of the Russell Method of Creative Discipline: • Exhaustive research and thought to the point of complete immersion in the subject. • Attaining physical and objective distance from the project, during which further contemplation is undertaken in a state of Active Idleness. • Seeing the work or solution as a whole, and reproducing same. • Sober self-criticism and editing after the fact to ensure the creative and intellectual integrity of the project.
