When I was an art student, one of my professors had a similar approach. If a student was reluctant to get started drawing, he would throw their paper onto the floor and stomp it until was scuffed and dirty and no longer pristine. "There," he would say. "Now it's not perfect and you don't have to be afraid of ruining it." I noticed your list of "masters of long form non-fiction" includes only two women. I wonder if the results would have been different if you had been able to find more women writers. I am wondering specifically about the scheduling aspects.
