Steven Pressfield, author of "Gates of Fire" about the original Spartans, and the classics "The Warrior Ethos" and "The War of Art" joins Joe De Sena on the Spartan Up podcast today. How will you keep driving forward in 2021? And what can we learn from the ancient Spartans about success and drive?

If you've heard the terms "going pro" or "resistance" in the context of athletic, creative, mental performance you've heard the ideas of Stephen Pressfield. What can we learn about motivation from the original Spartans? What is the essential lesson of Pressfield's book "turning pro?" Those are all topics of this motivating conversation.

Get ready to crash into 2021 and keep driving forward, just make sure you're walking, lifting, running, or hustling while you listen.
