Cameron Hanes discovered his true passion for bowhunting when he was twenty. Inspired by the physical challenges of stalking elk in the Oregon wilderness—traversing mountainous terrain, braving erratic weather, and evading his quarry’s even more dangerous predators—he began an ever-evolving journey of self-improvement. To become the best bowhunter of wild elk, to the caliber he believed he could be, Cam realized he would need more than archery skills.

Based on the breakthrough Akimbo workshop pioneered by legendary author Seth Godin, The Practice will help you get unstuck and find the courage to make and share creative work. Godin insists that writer's block is a myth, that consistency is far more important than authenticity, and that experiencing the imposter syndrome is a sign that you're a well-adjusted human.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Publisher's Summary
Think of The War of Art as tough love...for yourself.
Since 2002, The War of Art has inspired people around the world to defeat "resistance"; to recognize and knock down dream-blocking barriers and to silence the naysayers within us. Resistance kicks everyone's butt, and the desire to defeat it is equally as universal. The War of Art identifies the enemy that every one of us must face, outlines a battle plan to conquer this internal foe, then pinpoints just how to achieve the greatest success.
Though it was written for writers, it has been embraced by business entrepreneurs, actors, dancers, painters, photographers, filmmakers, military service members, and thousands of others around the world.
Featured Article: The Best Audiobooks Under 4 Hours
Time—there's never enough of it in a day. Most of us wish we had more time to get things done, or more hours to do the things we enjoy—reading a book, for instance. That's what makes audiobooks an excellent option for busy people: they're perfect for multitasking. Many audiobooks are several hours long, but if you're in the mood to listen to a story in one sitting, there are plenty of shorter audiobooks to be found. Want to fit a stellar audiobook into your busy schedule? All of these listens come in just under four hours, so you can enjoy them in one or two sessions.

The concept of work vs. resistance is pure gold
The concept of work vs. resistance is pure gold. From a business perspective (creative production and delivery) it makes this book a must-read for any entrepreneur.
The exploration of the "muses" might appeal to purely artistic and creative types. Maybe not so much for a business person.
The author's passionate audible delivery made the listening truly enjoyable from start to finish.

War Against Common Sense?
I tried reading the physical version of this book, but it read like a series of bullet points listed beneath a guiding topic. Listening to this book made it much easier.
But the stuff Pressfield says is really difficult to endorse. It starts off all right. Fight back against resistance. I agree. Resistance stops us from accomplishing so much. However, when he begins explaining how ADHD or anxiety disorders are not REAL--but instead the result of resistance and procrastination--I felt a bit uneasy. He cites no sources. He has no validation for these claims, but he presents them as facts which is extremely irresponsible. When he starts saying that cancer is cured by people who produce art...yeah, I checked out.
I gave the performance three stars. Pressfield reads this in an angry-ish and judgmental tone, and I think that's right in line with the tone of the text.
I'd say save yourself the time and money. You already know that procrastination hurts. Write your own list of motivational bullet points. Hey, maybe you can publish them someday.

I listened to half an hour and it already ruined my entire day
I got through about thirty minutes of this book before I couldn’t take it anymore. The central thesis is that procrastinating inhibits our long-term success and what we’re “born to do.” It sounds great in theory, but the author pads the work with superstitions, fake facts, and proselytizing.
In just thirty minutes of this audiobook, the author claimed that:
- Hitler would not have gone after the Jews if he didn’t face resistance with his art career
- Terminal and non-terminal cancer patients go into remission when they stop procrastinating on their goals
- Diseases such as ADHD, social anxiety disorder, and seasonal depression disorder are fake illnesses created by drug companies to make more money (yes, he really said that)
- If everyone overcame resistance (which is what he calls procrastination), world hunger and poverty would magically disappear, and we wouldn’t need doctors anymore.
Again, I only listened to thirty minutes, and this book ruined my entire day. Please save yourself the 1 audible credit. Don’t repeat my mistakes.

Hard to get past the ignorance of mental health
I got this hoping it'd be a good motivator and may teach me some techniques for overcoming the resistance I feel towards starting and completing projects.
Unfortunately, it became clear pretty early on that the author seems to be labouring under the opinion that his "resistance" theory is literally the explanation for everything. Resistance, the author posits, is simply the resistance one feels to accomplishing tasks we set out for. Apparently its also an "evil" force, according to the author, designed to stop you from fulfilling the potential ordained to you by God.
Apparently it explains everything.
Unfullfilling sexual encounters? That's just resistance.
Depression and anxiety? Resistance.
Drug dependence and abuse? Resistance.
Within a few chapters our author is already proposing that mental health conditions are just "made up by copywriters to sell you a cure for a desease they invented".
It's wilfully ignorant attitudes like this that make those who suffer from mental health conditions lives so much harder, as they struggle to overcome the stigma that it's just "all in your head" and they must just not want to be well enough.
Pretty disappointed.

Unbearable metaphors.
Insinuating Adolf Hitler started WW2 because he resisted becoming a painter, and the outrageous sentence “is it any coincidence the 9/11 hijackers frequented strip clubs?” F***ing what?
And the way Steven Pressfield writes about mental health like it could be shaken off. This is all so terribly tone deaf.
I’d love to stick it out past the half way mark, but all these terrible metaphors, and insinuations make it very hard to take it seriously.

Straight to the point
Half way through the book I wanted to put it down and get on with my true purpose. It was motivating me so badly. If you like Corey Wayne you’ll like this. The reader is very enthusiastic too, which helps a lot.
I’m going to have to listen to this more than once, there’s so much information. But that’s fine because it’s not 12 hours long.

Okay start, rapidly descends into nonsense.
What starts out as a fine peptalk in the first few chapters unfortunately descends quickly into what I suppose I could cruelly summarize as half religious, half psychobabble rambling. It attempts to make creative pursuits out to be magical and mystic. I profoundly disagree with that kind of assertion.
This isn't a book without value, and the delivery is fine, although the backing music is at times distracting, at times a little too openly attempting to manipulate your state of mind. The actual content, as said, falls off in value.

Great ideas, but should have a religious warning
As some one who believe god is as real as the tooth fairy, I found that the half hour or so of religious talk unnecessary and useless. I completely zoned out for those parts and found it difficult to focus on the other bits.
That said the other ideas in the book are excellent.

WOW an awakening both practically and emotionally!
This universal concept at first seems too simple, ubiquitous and main stream to warrant a sophisticated review. However Stevens observations and interpretations provide abundant fodder to enlighten, embolden and empower an open mind!
Steven is upfront and forthcoming that he has written this from his spiritual perspective.
However he incorporates analogy and quotes from many view points. This idea of resistance being given power can be understood and combatted by people of any perspective or faith. He takes a vast concept and translates it into day to day morsals ripe for consumption.
I will on my second listen through no doubt make some notes and further discoveries.
Thank you Steven for your words.
Thank you Seth Godin for the recommendation and Tim Ferriss for facilitating this discovery.

Short and Sweet
A very interesting perspective into the purpose of creative endeavours. The author can be a little American at times, but the overall message is clear and incredibly important for anyone trying to pursue something.
