Resistance is the very thing that prevents us from doing what we’re meant to do more than anything else. And Resistance doesn’t like that very much. Resistance is that voice that says, “I can always start my new diet tomorrow… but for now, let’s have one last slice of pizza.” Anything that requires any amount of will-power, discipline, or fear-facing is a threat to Resistance.

You want to go up to that girl/guy and introduce yourself-but Resistance says you’ll get rejected. You want to write that book-but Resistance tells you no one will want to read it. You want to start that business-but Resistance whispers in your ear, telling you you’re not good enough to succeed. Resistance occurs when we try to break away from something old (a bad habit, a crappy career) in search of something new and better. If you answered “yes” to any of the aforementioned questions, then you’re in the same boat as everyone else-suffering from what the author Steven Pressfield refers to as “Resistance.” Have you ever had a dream that you wanted to pursue-but didn’t? Have you ever had a great idea with lots of potential-but failed to take action on making it happen? Have you ever started a new gym routine, diet, project or program of any kind-but failed to follow through on it? The life we live, and the unlived life within us.
