The War of Art: Break through the blocks and win your inner creative battles. by Steven Pressfield.

Most of us have two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us. Between the two stand the Resistance.

The resistance is your enemy.

And as the Dalai Lama has stated “The enemy is a very good teacher”

- Resistance is implacable (& cannot be reasoned with)
- Resistance is impersonal (doesn’t know who you are and doesn’t care)
- Resistance is infallible (use it as a compass)

- Resistance is fueled by fear
- Resistance only opposes in one direction (lower sphere to higher sphere)
- Resistance is most powerful at the finish line
- Resistance recruits allies (sabotage of others)
