The first step is to identify what is the most important project for you to be working on. Turns out, there’s a simple answer to that. @StevePressfield explains here and on the Huberman Lab podcast out now.
Steven Pressfield is the author of The War of Art and seasoned expert in how to overcome the inner force of "resistance"—the self-sabotaging tendency to procrastinate on your life’s most important work that keeps you from realizing your professional and creative potential.
As the author of numerous best-selling books and screenplays, Steven understands resistance firsthand and how to overcome it.
Instead of giving inspirational stories or quotes, he shares actionable tools for defeating inner resistance that work. His approach is concrete and can teach you how to work like a pro even if you’ve never been published or are entering a new field.
Steven’s routines for cultivating discipline and focus, including his physical training regimen (he is incredibly mentally and physically vigorous at 82), are applicable for anyone.
He gives you effective practical strategies for how to structure your day, overcome procrastination and self-doubt and do your best, most meaningful work.
