You have no excuse.
Anyone who has struggled to get things done – big things – your dream things – will find your internal weapon to resistance.

Find out how to start, how to finish and how to just keep the hell going!

“a child has no trouble believing the unbelieveable, nor does the genius or madman…it’s only you and I, with our big brains and tiny hearts, who doubt and overthink and hesitate.” Listen to your dream, and work hard to beat “resistance” and “rational thought.,” that inner voice that chatters with all the reasons why you can’t.

With chapters titled: Start Before You’re Ready; Stay Primitive; and Swing for the Seats – this isn’t just an intellectual exercise, but a map for getting your stuff – your work – done.

A way to push past all the reasons why not and the method to cling to the reason why.

The book is an easy read. I followed the suggestion in the forward and read it through, stopping just once.  I went back and read it again – this time, noting things that really resonated with me.  I suspect this is the type of book that I will read again when I’m in a different place in my life and I’ll glean other bits of wisdom that make sense to me just then.

The kindle version of the book is available at no cost thanks to GE.

Steven Pressfield’s book Do The Work is part of the Domino Project. Created by Seth Godin and “powered by Amazon”. The concept is simple. The name is from the idea of the domino effect; that powerful ideas spread quickly and easily from one person to another.

    Thanks, Phyllis – perfect timing. This is exactly what I need right now.

    Unfortunately, Amazon refuses to recognize my Kindle for PC and Kindle for iPod apps, even though they’re registered. I’ve tried multiple times and still no luck. *sigh*

    I guess I’ll just have to pay the 8 bucks.

    Oh LaVonne – I’m sorry to hear that. I wish I could “send” you my kindle copy. It’s really good – I will get the hard copy too – it’s the kind of book I can see myself re-reading now and then!
