So what’s holding you back? Is it fear of failure, self-doubt, procrastination, addiction, distraction, timidity, ego, perfectionism, rational thinking, over thinking, friends, and family? That’s a long list, and I’m sure I’ve left off a few. All of these forces are opposing forces working against us. It’s that chatter in your brain you hear and label as “thoughts.” Steven Pressfield, in “Do The Work” tells us to these are not our thoughts. Instead, it is chatter and to pay no attention to the rambling, disjointed images and ideas that drift in your mind. That chatter in your brain – is called RESISTANCE.
A great quote in the book, “A child has no trouble believing the unbelievable, nor does the genius or the madman. It’s only you and I, with our big brains and our tiny hearts, who doubt and overthink and hesitate.”
Are YOU Ready to get off the couch and get started? Read “Do The Work!” It’s a short, fast read that could be the driving force giving you the tools to go after your life dream.
