“Resistance will tell you anything to keep you from doing your work. It will perjure, fabricate, falsify; seduce bully, cajole. Resistance is protean. It will assume any form, if that’s what it takes to deceive you. Resistance will reason with you like a lawyer or jam a nine-millimeter in your face like a stickup man. Resistance has no conscience. It will pledge anything to get a deal, then double-cross you as soon as your back is turned. If you take Resistance at its word, you deserve everything you get.”–Steven Pressfield, Do the Work: Overcome Resistance and get out of your own way
