This month, my recommendation is something for those of you who struggle with creative blocks and inner battles.
I’ve read Pressfield’s other well-known book – Do the Work – (which I would recommend!) but I thought it would be good to read The War of Art, as it is aimed specifically at creatives.
As always you can share your thoughts with us below, or over in the FB group.

What keeps so many of us from doing what we long to do? Why is there a naysayer within? How can we avoid the roadblocks of any creative endeavor—be it starting up a dream business venture, writing a novel, or painting a masterpiece?
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.
The War of Art emphasizes the resolve needed to recognize and overcome the obstacles of ambition and then effectively shows how to reach the highest level of creative discipline. Think of it as tough love . . . for yourself.
