Well... talking about Self-Control and writing... a totally different thought:
I sometimes feel like my self-control, thought-discipline and fear of letting go, both emotionally and mentally, is a barrier in my writing process? Do you think that too?
Sometimes I feel like great artists somehow manage to totally dive into this world of art and they find awesome stuff there (I mean even without drugs!). Somehow they create those AMAZING works, lines, word puns, images, flows, etc. and it is a mystery to me how they can do it... they find words that talk right into my heart (and a lot of other people's hearts), but for some reason I couldn't find them on my own... I feel so rigid and controlled at times when I want to write something down...
Do you think those geniuses could be less self-controlled? Bolder to let go of rules and programs and forms?
How can you learn that?
