A shorter way to say all this is just this: discipline. Get your ass to work. Quit screwing around and go to work. Just start. All the hooey about angels is just that. Picasso put it more succinctly: "I believe in inspiration but it must find you working."

[@organboi]

Easier said than done. The author certainly would not agree with your statement. There IS no short cut. He's helping us. Simply saying, "Get off your ass" will not work for the vast majority of people.

Amazing book, my third reading, and still new insights come pouring out... the first two readings I did over two days, the first I was incredulous that there could be this whole other side to creation, the second was a springboard that I wasn't so timid about and so I found myself responding to it in my own words, I'm still not sure I haven't restated anything but, I had the feeling the muse had been at me a bit😂

[@veritas6335]

What?

[@organboi]

Too funny!! Yeah, why is that? 😆 It looks awful.

[@veritas6335]

It's good that Pressfield took up writing self-help books. That he imagined he was a writer when turning out trash monster movies like King Kong Lives (does such a movie actually exist?) is unfathomable. Taste and judgement and intelligence are a part of the art of creation, as much as everything else. Having said that, his fable about Bagger Vance did have a certain charm.

Rude. You're judging a film you haven't seen?

Regarding victim hood It looks like needing a Caine to be Able. Inside one person. Jekyll and Hyde. Child and God. This is a long known family dysfunction. We have to look Inside ourselves deeper than we believe we can. "Can't is a scarecrow" said Frederick Nietzsche

That's really funny man hah

[@renzo6490]

He says that Hitler wanted to be an artist. He applied to the academy of fine arts and the school of architecture. We are asked if we have ever seen one of his paintings. NO is the presumed answer, "resistance beat him. It was easier for Hitler to start World War Two than it was for him to face a blank square of canvas." Hitler faced many blank canvases and filled them. It wasn't exactly resistance that beat Hitler. He was rejected everywhere he applied to school. Perhaps if he had been accepted, the world might have been spared the war.

[@TheTimeOfThePlace]

I think the word is a little over used here, you can guess what I am talking about, a lot of rhetoric trying to act profound, but if you are not a total hack, this book will not side you very much

Resistance is futile

[@lucasjourneydesign]

If I hear the word resistance again it will be too soon. Good lord, pages after page repeating the same point.

[@ciobalina7445]

That's the style in self-developement books. Repetition of the same thing. A lot of what he says is a bunch of BS that he has rewrittened nicely or just ideas taken from others, like in the case of most self-development writers.

[@wallace870]

Because…. that’s what “resistance” does, haunts the creative mind, over and over. Hence… Pressfield, stating “resistance against… resistance, resistance, resistance 😅😮”

[@veritas6335]

Rewrittened?

[@organboi]

99 percent finished a book amd then he quit because he "didnt have the guts?" This guy is not stable. Just all so wrong. Most people will not relate to this bizarre stuff. Just because HE had a morbid psychotic fear of success doesnt mean WE have the same. He sounds like a self sabateur. That is not the problem most people have.

Carrying on about god and angels and spirits and the divine is mostly superstitious nonsense and not helpful as regards creativity. Parts of this are helpful in mastering self discipline but the religious blather is just silly

[@organboi]

Hmm. Not nonsense at all, imo.

ADHD is real. And yes some people abused the meds who are not afflicted with and a lot of people struggle with out meds but they still have it.

[@st.valentineArt]

Yeah!! chronic illness is real and not “just in your head” Some of this book has some very boomer takes.

[@StatusFX3]

Haha yeah... there's plenty of good info here, but it seems to be negligent to the fact that the author himself is just as biased as the rest of us.

[@schizofennec]

the original book was produced by an older guy in 2002, its a product of its time

[@dragonbreathspineofcreatio7589]

Sounds like victims that want someone to feel bad for them ? Omg poor thing has adhd ! People that had adhd were called normal kids back in the day

[@hotlinebing]

I think whether adhd is real or not is beside the point. I think it’s pretty obvious that adhd is real. But at the same time, it is an obstacles in the way, rather than a stop sign. Having adhd shouldn’t prevent you from doing whatever you want in life, it just may mean your solutions to problems may be different than others.

[@claradontcara]

I'm loving this book. The section about Madonna cracked me up though. 1:30:20 "Madonna does not IDENTIFY with Madonna, Madonna EMPLOYS Madonna" .... uh, I'm pretty sure that after all of that surgery that makes her look like a space alien on acid 24/7, she pretty much IDENTIFIES as MADONNA. But alas, she always seemed so savy and smart, who could've thought she'd go "full r3tard?"

[@gtron7692]

LoL 👍

[@organboi]

The voice gets annoying. You cant have a jolly ol 70 something year old reading a book that has cuss words in it.

[@organboi]

Just as I expected: all is well until the author FAILS to tell us HOW to achieve victory over the negative forces. Shameful. Why did this end so suddenly? Such a disappointment. Just like 90 percent of books on writing fail to tell us HOW. The writers dont know how, they just know what NOT to do. When a screenwriter cant write a script, he turns to writinf books on HOW to write one. Same thing here. Frustrating.
