Episode Recap:

On this episode of the Marketing Secrets podcast, I dive deep into the theme of resistance with insights drawn from one of my all-time favorite books, The War of Art by Steven Pressfield. Resistance is that unseen force that stops us from doing what we’re meant to do—whether it’s starting a business, creating content, or pursuing personal growth. In this two-part episode, you’ll hear the highlights from my YouTube video about overcoming resistance and then a special hour-long interview I had with Steven Pressfield himself. It’s a must-listen for anyone looking to win the daily battle against their internal obstacles.

Steven and I explore how resistance manifests in our lives, its deceptive lies, and the strategies to defeat it. We also discuss Steven’s personal journey, his groundbreaking works, and his profound insights into creative endeavors. This conversation will resonate not just with writers and artists, but with entrepreneurs, athletes, and anyone striving to live their calling.

Key Highlights:

  • Exposing Resistance: Recognize resistance as the enemy holding you back and learn how to map out its attacks in your daily life.
  • The Lies We Believe: Uncover resistance’s tactics, like procrastination, shadow callings, and settling for temporary pleasures.
  • The Bigger the Dream, the Bigger the Resistance: Why significant goals attract greater obstacles—and why that’s a sign you’re on the right track.
  • Turning Pro: Learn how shifting your mindset from amateur to professional is the antidote to overcoming resistance.
  • Steven’s Wisdom: Hear Steven’s stories, from his early struggles to finding his calling, and how he channels creativity through disciplined action.

This episode is packed with transformative advice for conquering resistance and stepping into your highest potential. Tune in, take notes, and let’s beat resistance together!
