About this listen
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.

Want to know the secret to achieving your dreams and living a life of passion? The War of Art is a practical manual for personal development that equips you with strategies and tools to conquer your fears and bet on yourself.
Before he became a best-selling novelist and acclaimed screenwriter, Steven Pressfield battled a terrible foe: his internal naysayer. His creative struggles led to living out of the back of his car and working odd jobs as he tried and failed to make it as a writer. As Pressfield shares in The War of Art, the key to unlocking his potential and opening the door to success — including having his novels turned into Hollywood movies starring Matt Damon, Will Smith, and Anthony Hopkins—was overcoming what he calls 'Resistance with a capital "R"'.
Procrastination, perfectionism, fear and self-doubt are all examples of Resistance, a form of self-sabotage that causes us to ignore our calling. Identifying and conquering the enemy within led Pressfield on his own journey of discovery. His hard-earned wisdom shines through in this audiobook, which he narrates himself.
The War of Art is self-help on steroids. Pressfield urges listeners to live the life they were meant to live. The only way to do that, as he makes clear, is by taking action and developing creative discipline. According to one listener, this audiobook is 'a game changer, an eye opener, a kick in the butt reality check...to just get on with it and live the life you want and become the person you want to be'.
