Writing Wednesdays: My Head in the Morning
Great post from Steven Pressfield, which can help you stop saying, Why am I like this?
It may not be you, but something else. Give it another name (for Pressfield it’s Resistance) and let it be that something else, and chances are you can deal with it better, or shake it off, and ignore it altogether.
Don’t be someone who beats yourself up, for you already have your hands full making sure nobody else does either.
Don’t dwell on that anxiety. Don’t overthink it.
Get up. Get moving. Do whatever you have to do to seize the reins of that chariot and to take command of those four unruly horses.
Fiery chargers are good. Horsepower is what we want. We just have to learn how to gain control of those magnificent, passionate beasts and to get them to take us where we want to go.
Pressfield is talking about that same next-stepping we happen to be focused on at Managing with Aloha now too.
