This is key, you have to learn about yourself and see what makes you tick. Some of the most brilliant and creative people I know are pretty fucked up when compared to what our culture things they should be.

Some are ultra-marathon runners that we never see when they train for months. Others are master coders and creators that get high and shit-faced in downtown Boston bars.

Now, I do recommend living a healthy lifestyle. That gives them more stamina to keep creating but the one thing that they all have in common is that they live life their way. They maximize what makes them happy and feel good. Success usually follows.
