The same is good advice for musicians. I remember a buddy of mine's father would say write and play an album's worth of material. Practice it until you are sick of half of the songs. Write another album worth of songs. Practice the album and a half worth of remaining songs until you are sick of half of them. You repeat that process about 3 or 4 times and you should have a pretty good album.
This requires the creator to be 100% objective about what's working and what isn't. Not what you like, or wish would work, or whatever other delusions and time-wasters. You should be able to make quick, unapologetic decisions about what to cut, which (for most people) will be most of what you create. If you never quit, and ONLY accept what is great, then there's no way you can fail. Obviously this also requires constant attempts and "failures". If you're honest with yourself, and are willing to drop the useless stuff, then YOU have not failed. This applies to any endeavor. But you have to REALLY want to get good. Most people simply don't have what it takes to fulfill this simple formula. This is why "talent" and "genius" are overrated, overused, and unnecessary concepts.
@@HotBreathPod Impossible to choose, my guy. All his specials actually feel "special" and 2017 was amazing, definitely the best special in recent memory for me.
Starting with tye closer is great and all, but i went to see Louie about 3 years ago. He walked on stage, told a whopper of a joke, said goodnight and walked off stage!

Nothing on the internet yet, act going good, building a set, lately I've been listing 2 Patrice O'neal, but I also like Dave Chappelle, Pryor, Carlin, Louie as inspirations, although I do enjoy others they're the acts that get me amped.
