Thanks for sharing that Josh!

My brother gifted me a book recently that has helped me confront some of the same demons you've struggled with; I wonder if you've read it. It's called "The War of Art." Beyond it's hokey title it was a real "slap in the face" for me. It's author Steven Pressfield calls anything that prevents you from doing your work, Resistance. He lays it out as an eternal duel between Resistance and creation, and touches on the muses, consciousness, the spiritual nature of creation, the ways Resistance will go to great lengths to stop you from doing what you were born to do.

It really helped me to define my fear as something external, something NOT me, deliberately trying its damnedest to sabotage my work. I even gave it a name: Bob (fans of Twin Peaks will get it). I'm not the enemy anymore. It's this dark entity Bob, and I'm beating this sunnuvabitch.

Why...why did you say that?

Good
