Overcome Resistance and Get Out of Your Own Way. Do you find yourself unable to finish a project? Perhaps your dream is to write a book, start a new business, or begin a new philanthropic endeavor. As you begin your new project, fear begins to seep in and you begin to self-sabotage. You procrastinate and begin to engage in self-doubt, these demons prohibit you from achieving your goals and pursuing your dreams. Unfortunately, many of us find ourselves in this position quite often. But where does this inner resistance come from and why is it consistently stopping us from accomplishing more? Throughout Do the Work, Steven Pressfield aims to teach you everything you need to know to identify these causes of resistance and how to stop it from taking over. You’ll learn the various techniques you need to overcome the resistance, get back to work and finally turn your dreams into a reality. As you read, you’ll learn how arrogance and ignorance are your allies, you'll discover how to slay a dragon, and finally, you'll understand why failure leads to success.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 There are seven basic principles for working efficiently while minimizing distracting and destructive habits. While many of these concepts have been around for several millennia, not many know how to access and apply them to work and career situations. #2 To be an effective manager of yourself and others, you must shift your attention from what you’ve done wrong to corrective action. You’ll be problem-solving and feeling effective within 5 seconds. #3 The law of reverse effort states that if you’re struggling, you’re going in the wrong direction. To free yourself, you have to go in the opposite direction and do what is counterintuitive, like facing down the ski slope to gain control over your skis. #4 You can increase your productivity by shifting from ego-focused to task-focused in just one breath. Categorize your thoughts as belonging in one of two boxes: Box #1 is for thoughts about the past, the future, and what’s wrong with you. Box #2 is for thoughts about working on the task.

Summary of Bullshit Jobs by David Graeber

Book Description
Complete summary of David Graeber book Bullshit Jobs About the original book: In 1930, economist John Maynard Keynes predicted that by the end of the century, we would all be working fifteen-hour weeks. But then something strange happened. The average working hours have grown rather than reduced in recent years. And now, three-quarters of all occupations in the industrialized world are in services or administration, positions that don't appear to give value to society—bullshit jobs. David Graeber's book Bullshit Jobs investigates how this issue - more identified with the Soviet Union in the twentieth century, but which capitalism was intended to eradicate - came to be. He examines how we value labor and how, rather than being productive, work has become a goal in itself; how much work perpetuates the existing dysfunctional financial capital system; and, eventually, how we might break free.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 We’re taught from a young age that there’s a right way to do things: get good grades, go to college, choose a career path, start a business, collect a steady paycheck, and upsize our spending as our pay increases. But life doesn’t have to go that way. #2 Retirement is a loaded term that is filled with imagery of sipping an umbrella drink on a beach. But in reality, retirement has only existed since the late 1800s, and very few people have ever actually retired. #3 There is no correct time to retire. The idea that age 65 is the right retirement age is an arbitrary number chosen by economists and actuaries when Social Security was created, and it happens to make things balance out financially. #4 You can call yourself retired in some form if you feel like it. And after you detach yourself from the age 65 and its limiting notions of what retirement means, you open yourself up to a different way of seeing life.
