| What is different
The most important thing in his writing activity
It is a regular lifestyle.
In fact, he said he believed in rules and discipline rather than talent, not genius.
Murakami goes to bed at 9 o’clock and wakes up at 4 a.m.
I write for 5–6 hours in the morning.
In the afternoon, you can run 10km or swim 1500m.
Sometimes I do both.
Other times, I read books or listen to music.
In particular, I was so passionate about running that I said, “I am not a person thinking of things with my head, but a person who moves and grasps my body.”
In a 2004 Paris review, Murakami said.
“I still keep the routine without transformation.
Iteration is now an important task.
It is a kind of mesmerism.
To reach a deeper state of mind.”
Writing requires as much physical strength as artistic sensitivity.
No matter how advanced your skills are, writing a feature-length novel requires considerable physical strength.
Murakami has been maintaining the routine for more than 25 years.
Do you have a habit you wanted to challenge?
Let’s get started.
And repeat.
Obviously, your routine will guide you to a higher and deeper state.

We must intentionally decide who we will be.
If you do not decide how to act, your body will go through the same cycle of finding the same chemical and emotional state you are accustomed to.
