There's a fantastic book called "War of Art" by Steven Pressfield that is along the same lines as your article (I came to it via Jonathan Hickman's excellent afterword in the Nightly News trade, a good inspiring read in itself).
It was a book that definitely changed my way of thinking and I implore anyone who has creative tendencies or aspirations to better themselves to pick it up.
It needed more Hal Jordan though.
I can't help but think of that moment in Rebirth where Parallax is shouting at Hal

It's not finished (needs colouring obviously) and it will eventually form what will be a Ditko-themed half sleeve.
Josh,
Excellent post!

"I don't know how."
