I cannot write if there is noise around me. Even if I listen to a song for inspiration (and get said inspiration out of it), once I start writing, I can't listen to it at the same time because it's distracting.
Also, I can't write without smoking cigarettes. It's a form of meditation for me and it helps me focus.
On a side note, those commandments are such a load of toss, 3, 4 and 8 are contradicting one another so badly it's a wonder Miller was ever able to write anything without developing a dissociative personality disorder.
