Quotes by Joli Jensen  (?)

“The ethic of craftsmanship involves a willingness to focus, directly and methodically, on what we don’t yet know so that we can learn how to work with ever-increasing skill.”
Joli Jensen, Write No Matter What: Advice for Academics

“Call your most energetic hours A time. Your goal is to protect your A time from all the B and C tasks that tend to fill it up. B tasks require alertness and focus, but not necessarily your best creative energy. C tasks are mostly rote—work that doesn’t require as much insight or creativity as writing does. Start valuing yourself enough to assign A time to A tasks, B time to B tasks, and C time to C tasks.”
Joli Jensen, Write No Matter What: Advice for Academics

“Too often we treat our academic work as a measure of our inner worth, rather than as a process of learning how to use a specific set of skills.”
