The professional conducts his business in the real world. Adversity, injustice, bad hops and rotten calls, even good breaks and lucky bounces all comprise the ground over which the campaign must be waged. The field is level, the professional understands, only in heaven.

Resistance really takes the shape, for me, in voices in my head telling me why I can't do something or why I should put it off for another day, procrastinate for another day.

Resistance is not a peripheral opponent. Resistance arises from within. It is self-generated and self-perpetuated. resistance is the enemy within.

Resistance’s goal is not to wound or disable. Resistance aims to kill

Resistance will tell you anything to keep you from doing your work.

We feed it [Resistance] with power by our fear of it. Master that fear and we conquer Resistance.

What finally convinced me to go ahead was simply that I was so unhappy not going ahead.
