Procrastination was Da Vinci's biggest "life stain" other than that chicken crime.
Da Vinci's procrastination was not the same concept as the contemporary internet writers' "gugu gugu".
When internet writers "gugu gugu", they pay the price in terms of missing manuscript fees.
Not a word written, who pays the fee?
Da Vinci, on the other hand, was calm and composed—having collected the money first.
If an employer asked, he would adopt the same attitude Su Shi had towards Dongpo pork—[Let it cook thoroughly, don't rush it].
Dongpo pork is delicious when it's perfectly cooked, Da Vinci's paintings are beautiful when inspiration is ripe.
Artistic creation, well, the delay is a must when inspiration is lacking; what else can you do?
Writers must politely ask for leave from the lords of readers, even the habitual offenders come up with a variety of excuses.
Da Vinci was different; he stood his ground with conviction.
