Slay that dragon once, and he will never have power over you again.

The artist committing himself to his calling has volunteered for hell, whether he knows it or not. He will be dining for the duration on a diet of isolation, rejection, self-doubt, despair, ridicule, contempt, and humiliation.

Resistance in my experience always kicks in when you're trying to move from a lower level to a higher level or to identify with a braver part of yourself or your higher nature. So it's that negative repelling force. It's kind of the dragon that we have to slay every day if we're artists or entrepreneurs.

It is one thing to study war and another to live the warrior's life.

You have never tasted freedom, friend, or you would know it is purchased not with gold, but steel.

If you're are paralyzed with fear it's a good sign. It shows you what you have to do.

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