    The Battle Against Your Inner Resistance

    Лучшая цитата из The Battle Against Your Inner Resistance

    “

    The gap between your current and ideal self isn't filled with time or knowledge—it's filled with action taken despite not feeling ready. Taking action creates motivation, not the other way around.
