A creative habit I wish I had: I admire anyone with the ability to exhaust an idea. My friend Marjorie told me about the time she was obsessed with squash -- drawing them, painting them, finding inspiration in the color, shape & texture -- and I was jealous of her ability to focus. I am usually working on about six things at once, related or not. I love the idea of being able to squeeze every last drop from one (juicy) subject. I would love to hear from anyone who operates this way!
I have a friend who is a musician who told me he'd go INSANE if he had as many creative pursuits as I did. I can't stop thinking about that because it's absolutely true, but I can't decide which to give up!
