You don't need to take a course or buy a product. All you have to do is change your mind.

When we are succeeding - that is, when we have begun to overcome our self-doubt and self-sabotage, when we are advancing in our craft and evolving to a higher level - that's when panic strikes. When we experience panic, it means that we're about to cross a threshold. We're poised on the doorstep of a higher plane.

Resistance is implacable, intractable, indefatigable.

The more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it.

The difference between an amateur and a professional is in their habits. An amateur has amateur habits. A professional has professional habits. We can never free ourselves from habit. But we can replace bad habits with good ones.

If you find yourself asking yourself (and your friends), "Am I really a writer? Am I really an artist?" chances are you are. The counterfeit innovator is wildly self-confident. The real one is scared to death.

Anything that draws attention to ourselves through pain-free or artificial means is a manifestation of Resistance.
