Stop treating your dream like a hobby. Treat it like a full time job.Set a schedule, have a deadline, and stay accountable. Don't over commit, just be consistent

Follow Your Dream

The more resistance we have, the more fear we feel, the more important that specific enterprise is to us and our growth

Fear Means It Is Important To Us

Finding what we are really good at is only half the battle, the hardest part is putting forth the effort and motivation to actually work towards it

Finding Your Purpose

Everyone struggles with Resistance. Resistance is the little voice that tells us to procrastinate, avoid, and do anything but work on our passion

We All Have Internal Resistance 

Once you find your purpose, take some concrete action towards your goal, so you can say you started, which is the hardest part

Act Now, Getting Started Is The Hardest Part

“Your job in this lifetime is not to shape ourselves into some ideal we imagine we ought to be, but to find out who we already are and become it.”-Steven Pressfield

Resistance manifests itself in the form of fear of failure, procrastination, and self-doubt

The only way to fight Resistance is through work.

Work On Your Passion

A passion should challenge you constantly. You should feel good when you go there. It should demand you constantly improveWhat you get back is only limited by what we put into it.

Possibilities Are Endless

This book was recommended to me and it did not disappoint. These were the key insights. Identify and follow your dreams!

What keeps so many of us from doing what we long to do? Why is there a naysayer within? How can we avoid the roadblocks of any creative endeavor—be it starting up a dream business venture, writing a novel, or painting a masterpiece? The War of Art identifies the enemy that every one of us must face, outlines a battle plan to conquer this internal foe, then pinpoints just how to achieve the greatest success. The War of Art emphasizes the resolve needed to recognize and overcome the obstacles of ambition and then effectively shows how to reach the highest level of creative discipline. Think of it as tough love . . . for yourself.
