You’ve got to lick yourself into shape. Nobody can do it for you. The man who dreams of artistry, and yet thinks it is necessary for somebody else to lick him into shape, is a man whose art is doomed to be mediocre. Please believe me, this is not harshness on my part: it is the harshness of the nature of the game that I am exposing to you. If you are going to deliver the real goods, you’ve got to do your own licking into shape. ↗
