An intersection between music and writing

This from guitarist Robert Fripp:

The first necessary foundation of craft: reliability. The second: repeatability – beginners’ luck is fine for beginners. The third: response-ability – our capacity to respond to challenges & opportunities. How do we establish a craft discipline? Practising. What is the first necessity of practising? Regularity. A regular practice addresses: knowing the instrument; knowing the vocabulary; knowing the repertoire; knowing the subject; listening; improvising.

Although Fripp is talking about music, this thoughts can be applied to writing as well.
