Summary

Think of The War of Art as tough love...for yourself.

Since 2002, The War of Art has inspired people around the world to defeat "resistance"; to recognize and knock down dream-blocking barriers and to silence the naysayers within us. Resistance kicks everyone's butt, and the desire to defeat it is equally as universal. The War of Art identifies the enemy that every one of us must face, outlines a battle plan to conquer this internal foe, then pinpoints just how to achieve the greatest success.

Though it was written for writers, it has been embraced by business entrepreneurs, actors, dancers, painters, photographers, filmmakers, military service members, and thousands of others around the world.

Starts off really entertaining and interesting but then quickly everything has some devine reference and Gods will this and holy purpose that, and other religious nonsense. First chapter or two well worth a listen but skip the rest.

Good start but too much God nonsense

Ok, a very good friend recommended this book to me to help me change my mindset. This is the first time I have ever had an audiobook sound like it was talking directly to me and that the narrator knew me. It has helped me think clearer and act accordingly. I will be listening to this at least once a week for the foreseeable future to listen between the lines. I know I haven’t heard everything so far and I need to dissect this fully. A great book and a great author. Thank you Mr Pressfield.

Very well written and delivered
I had so many bulb light moments and found plenty of gold nuggets.
I’m not a religious man, but something is to be said about the origin of any thoughts, ideas or Inspiration in any creative endeavors.
Thinking that we are solely responsible for it is in my opinion foolish.
I really enjoyed his take on our muses and angels whispering into our ears when we create.

Must read for all artists
