Have you ever felt completely stuck—like there’s an invisible force blocking you from doing the work you know you need to do? I have. That overwhelming negativity, the distractions, the inner voice telling you you're not good enough—it’s all part of what Steven Pressfield calls Resistance and what Napoleon Hill describes as drifting.

"Resistance is not personal—it just feels that way. It will shape-shift, bully you, seduce you, and distract you, all to keep you from doing meaningful work."

I’ve battled this force firsthand, and in this episode, I’m calling it out. I’ll talk about how Resistance disguises itself, how it tries to manipulate you, and the simple (but not easy) way to push through: just do the work.

"The simplest way to overcome Resistance is to do the thing you’re afraid of. Action dissolves fear."

If you’re feeling lost in distractions, resentment, or self-doubt, recognize it for what it is—Resistance trying to keep you stuck.

"Negativity feels like an immovable wall, but it’s really just stuck energy. The moment you take action, even a small one, you start breaking it down."

Whether it’s writing your book, creating content, or showing up for something that matters—it's time to stop negotiating with Resistance and take action.

"If you’re feeling lost in distractions, resentment, or self-doubt, recognize it for what it is—Resistance trying to keep you stuck. Call it out, and then get back to work."

At the end of the day, you either give in to Resistance, or you create. "The choice is yours."
