kind of corny but still good wisdom. it's about battling the internal resistance to doing your work. i used to re-read it as a form of resistance, actually

The War of Art
Reminded of this book today. It was instumental in helping me take writing seriously. The concept of personifying all our little self-sabotaging acts as an antagonistic entity called Resistance was so useful. Ironically, I don't remember finishing the book. But I did finish my first screenplay. Worth revisiting.

'the war of art' by stephen pressfield
The ultimate get-off-your-ass creative manual. It's SO GOOD and SO INSPIRING and I have demanded people's address at bars many times and ordered a copy for them on the spot. Plus reading about doing the work is a lot easier than doing the work (and still counts as work).

Turning Pro
by Steven Pressfield. For any creative, creator, writer, artist, dreamer, builder, doer who is facing Resistance This is the immediate follow up to War of Art and my favorite in the 6-ish book series. Start with WoA and then read this immediately. Short book, can be read in a couple hours — picked up and set down at will
