The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles


What keeps so many of us from doing what we long to do? Why is there a naysayer within? How can we avoid the roadblocks of any creative endeavor—be it starting up a dream business venture, writing a novel, or painting a masterpiece?

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.

The War of Art emphasizes the resolve needed to recognize and overcome the obstacles of ambition and then effectively shows how to reach the highest level of creative discipline. Think of it as tough love . . . for yourself.

Steven Pressfield has put it in a simpler way for all to understand and absorb the message he wanted all to know.
Below are some the reviews given by well-known people

REVIEWS

"The War of Art is a book about 'making'—for the beginner, the pro, for those of us in service to our craft. Pressfield's wisdom got me through the darkest night of my writing."
—Mary Sojourner, NPR commentator, novelist, essayist and columnist

"Pressfield is a riveting storyteller and his advice might put some spine into you."
—Seattle Times

"I've never read a self help book that wasn't fatuous, obvious and unhelpful. Until The War of Art. It's amazingly cogent and smart on the psychology of creation. If I ever teach a writing course this would be one of the first books I'd assign, along with the letters of Flannery O'Connor."
—Jay McInerney, author of Bright Lights, Big City and Brightness Falls

"The War of Art is a real find in the overcrowded field of self-help books. It stands out with its humor and its wisdom from a man who has faced his own demons and come out swinging. If you just take one or two of the suggestions in this book, you'll be moved to get up, to get going and to try to create goals for your life. I don't just recommend this book for writers, but for anyone who wants to be a little bit better than they were the day before."
—Gloria Naylor, author of Mama Day and The Women of Brewster Place
