The war of art
The War of Art is basically a battle manual—but the enemy isn’t out there… it’s sitting in your chair, scrolling your phone, and “just checking one more thing.” Here’s the core idea in plain terms: ⚔️ The Enemy: Resistance Pressfield calls it Resistance—that invisible force that shows up whenever you try to do something meaningful. - Procrastination - Self-doubt - Overthinking - “I’ll start tomorrow” syndrome - If it matters… Resistance shows up. Every time. And here’s the kicker: The stronger the Resistance, the more important the work. So if something feels like trying to bench press a truck emotionally… congratulations, that’s probably the thing you’re meant to do. 🛡️ Amateur vs Professional This is the line in the sand. Amateur: - Waits for inspiration - Lets feelings dictate action - Quits when it gets uncomfortable Professional: - Shows up no matter what - Works on schedule - Treats the craft like a job, not a mood A pro doesn’t ask, “Do I feel like creating today?”They say, “Cool, feelings—sit over there. We’re working.” 🔥 The Daily Battle This isn’t a one-time victory. It’s daily. - You don’t “beat” Resistance forever - You beat it today - Then tomorrow it tries again like it didn’t just lose yesterday Persistent little gremlin. Pardon me, can you pass the sharpie markers? I have an empty page, canvas, or blank digital document I need to wage war on.

Dealing with "Slow" Success
Sometimes we are going toward success, but the road is longer than we thought. It’s easy to get discouraged when the destination feels like it’s not getting any closer. How do you measure your progress when you aren't seeing the big "results" yet?

Sometimes the path forward feels like you’re walking on a treadmill set to “character development.” You’re moving… but the destination keeps playing hard to get. One thing that’s helped me stay grounded is how I measure progress. Not just big wins—but:• showing up consistently• getting a little sharper each day• handling situations today that would’ve rattled me a year ago That’s real progress, even if it doesn’t come with fireworks. I also pull a lot of perspective from movies and TV shows. Not just for entertainment—I genuinely apply those moments to real life. Shows like Breaking Bad stick with me because the writing is so sharp: • Characters constantly challenge each other’s illusions• The story repeatedly forces them to confront reality vs ego And honestly… that hits close to home. Sometimes the reason success feels “slow” isn’t because we’re stuck—it’s because we’re being stretched. Our expectations are getting recalibrated. Our mindset is catching up to the level we’re aiming for. Progress doesn’t always look like winning. Sometimes it looks like outgrowing the version of you that thought this would be easy.
Leading with Energy
"Become the magnet of positive energy you are expending. Mindset is everything!" If you’re a leader (even if you’re just leading yourself), your energy is your most important asset. Your team—or your audience—will never have more energy or belief than you do. What is the one thing you do to ensure you're "charging your battery" before you interact with others?

There’s a hard truth baked into leadership: nobody rises above the emotional ceiling you set. If your battery is at 40%, that’s the max capacity of the room. Across history—from battlefield commanders to modern leaders—the common thread isn’t hype… it’s intentional solitude before engagement. Leaders like Marcus Aurelius, George Washington, and Dwight D. Eisenhower all had a version of the same habit: They paused, centered, and aligned themselves before stepping into influence. Not after. Not during. Before. That looked like: - Journaling or reflection (Aurelius literally wrote his mindset into existence) - Quiet planning time (Washington reviewed strategy before facing his troops) - Mental rehearsal under pressure (Eisenhower visualized outcomes before D-Day decisions) No noise. No chaos. Just calibration. So if I had to boil it down to one thing:👉 I make sure I win the first conversation of the day—the one with myself. Whether it’s a few minutes of silence, prayer, journaling, or just getting brutally honest about where my head is at… I don’t step into other people’s world until I’ve checked my own. Because if you walk into a room scattered, you multiply confusion.If you walk in grounded, you multiply clarity.

Good luck! I recently acquired the laptop my previous employer provided. I honestly hate the “the device your using is not recognized” Texas 2 step you have to go through
