The Invisible War Within: Facing Creative Resistance
Ever notice how the moment you sit down to create something meaningful, your mind suddenly remembers a dozen urgent tasks? That's not coincidence-it's Resistance. This invisible force targets any activity that rejects immediate gratification for long-term growth: writing that screenplay, launching that business, improving your health, or pursuing spiritual advancement. Though we can't see it, Resistance radiates like an energy field from our work-in-potential, pushing us away from our calling with remarkable cunning. It fabricates excuses, seduces with distractions, and bullies with fear. Like a skilled lawyer, it reasons persuasively; like a criminal, it threatens mercilessly. Yet understanding Resistance offers profound liberation-it's not personal. It operates with the indifference of rain, a natural force blocking evolution and growth. You're not broken when you struggle to create. Paradoxically, Resistance serves as an infallible compass-the more important a pursuit is to your soul's evolution, the more Resistance you'll feel. That business you've dreamed of starting for years? The intensity of your procrastination reveals its importance. Everyone experiences this battle. Even Henry Fonda threw up before performances at age seventy-five. The warrior and artist live by the same code: the battle must be fought anew every day.
