RESISTANCE…we hear that word a lot. But watching last year’s Super Soul Sunday episode with Steven Pressfield about his book “The War of Art” has brought me new understanding of resistance.

For every dream that we have and every action that we take to evolve and become a greater version of Self, there will be resistance. And resistance can also show up as fear and procrastination. What I loved most about their discussion for the moment that I have been in is that the ego chatter of not being good enough, not being worthy (mine has been being a failure) is the resistance to prevent us from reaching a higher level.

Now that provides me some relief. I’ve been trying to go back in time to see where that thought originated. Heal that wound and get over it so it can stop getting in the way of my success. But Pressfield’s advice is to confront it head on and do whatever it is you’re resisting. And you know when you’re on the right path when you hit panic mode. That just means you’re right there getting ready to hit a new level. Wow! I’ve had some freak out moments recently where I just wanted to crawl in a hole and hide for a bit. It’s been resistance all this time…trying to stop me from reaching the next level.
