Ugly brown teapot ritual
Recently I’ve been re-reading Twyla Tharp’s excellent book, The Creative Habit. If you don’t know the book, it deals with constructing creative habits that can last a life-time. Central to making creativity a habit for Twyla is using rituals to feed creative routines. I’ve recently realised that an ugly little brown teapot has become key to my own early morning creative ritual (more in today’s micro-podcast below).
What rituals do you use to help kick-start your day?

I'm Michael Nobbs, an artist, blogger and tea drinker (not necessarily in that order).
I'd like to show you that it is possible to stay creative even when energy is in short supply, and how working on small creative acts on a regular basis can build over time into a substantial body of work (and even a creative career).
I've written a book called Sustainable Creativity. You're welcome to pay whatever you would like for it.

My new book, Getting Your Important Work Done, is currently free for members to download.
