Franz Kafka, frustrated with his living quarters and day job, wrote in a letter to Felice Bauer in 1912, “time is short, my strength is limited, the office is a horror, the apartment is noisy, and if a pleasant, straightforward life is not possible then one must try to wriggle through by subtle maneuvers.”
Kafka is one of 161 inspired—and inspiring—minds, among them, novelists, poets, playwrights, painters, philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians, who describe how they subtly maneuver the many (self-inflicted) obstacles and (self-imposed) daily rituals to get done the work they love to do, whether by waking early or staying up late; whether by self-medicating with doughnuts or bathing, drinking vast quantities of coffee, or taking long daily walks. Thomas Wolfe wrote standing up in the kitchen, the top of the refrigerator as his desk, dreamily fondling his “male configurations”. . . Jean-Paul Sartre chewed on Corydrane tablets (a mix of amphetamine and aspirin), ingesting ten times the recommended dose each day . . . Descartes liked to linger in bed, his mind wandering in sleep through woods, gardens, and enchanted palaces where he experienced “every pleasure imaginable.”
Here are: Anthony Trollope, who demanded of himself that each morning he write three thousand words (250 words every fifteen minutes for three hours) before going off to his job at the postal service, which he kept for thirty-three years during the writing of more than two dozen books . . . Karl Marx . . . Woody Allen . . . Agatha Christie . . . George Balanchine, who did most of his work while ironing . . . Leo Tolstoy . . . Charles Dickens . . . Pablo Picasso . . . George Gershwin, who, said his brother Ira, worked for twelve hours a day from late morning to midnight, composing at the piano in pajamas, bathrobe, and slippers . . .
Here also are the daily rituals of Charles Darwin, Andy Warhol, John Updike, Twyla Tharp, Benjamin Franklin, William Faulkner, Jane Austen, Anne Rice, and Igor Stravinsky (he was never able to compose unless he was sure no one could hear him and, when blocked, stood on his head to “clear the brain”).
Brilliantly compiled and edited, and filled with detail and anecdote, Daily Rituals is irresistible, addictive, magically inspiring.

評分真正的大師傑作是完美的日常生活~缺憾是安·蘭德太敷衍,而且竟然沒有伍爾夫!不能原諒作者????
評分深深為自己的 fruitless 人生感到後悔
評分like!!!
評分大好!作者的網站也推薦看。
这不是一本教科书或者创作秘籍。即使作者梅森‧柯瑞为我们整理了161个伟大创作者的日常工作习惯;即使书封上写着“激励你建立自己的创作模式”——假如你深信研习这些作家、哲学家、艺术家、音乐家的工作方法可以找到创作能量,我必须不怀好意地问一句:”今天你跑马拉松了吗...
評分21世纪的今天,高速发展的科技,快节奏的工作生活节拍,对大多数我们而言,已经缺乏足够的耐心和细心去努力追求什么……总想着有什么万能钥匙能解决我们所有的难题,或者秘籍去攻克下个碉堡。在看到这本《创作者的日常》简介提到的那些我们仰慕的作家,艺术家,科学家,思想家...
評分我是个业余写作者,写作是我的爱好之一。每次静下心来写东西,如果能进入全身心沉浸其中的“心流”状态,就会物我两忘、浑然不觉身外之事,那种感觉畅快无比。写成了一篇文字,不管质量好坏,内心都会充盈着快乐。 但更多的时候是抓耳挠腮、绞尽脑汁,思路在某些地方被反复卡住...
評分在资本运作的社会中,越来越多的人不再想给别人打工,他们不再想看人脸色又曲意逢迎的被剥削,接受着被动又死板的工作时间约束,在提升自己能力和单纯耗费时间两者间绞尽脑汁的博弈。人们累了,可笑的回看自己在这由食物链顶端者制定规则的社会中,被迫自欺欺人的相信“奋斗即...
評分花了两天时间读完了这本书,前些日子看到很多文章发布的题目,主题大致是只有律才能成就人生。 可真的是这样吗? 看完这本书你一定会有答案。 梅森挑选了161的创作者,对于他们的日常生活进行了轻描淡写的描述,好吧,我们也能看到这真的不是一本成功的励志书,如果说你试图通...
