Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be

By: Steven Pressfield

Narrated by: Steven Pressfield

Are you losing your "war of art"? Are you being defeated by a tendency to procrastination, self-doubt, fear, distraction, and perfectionism? Are you self-sabotaging your loftiest artistic entrepreneurial dreams?

The antidote is in nine words: Put your ass where your heart wants to be. Can you shift your artistic identity—your "ass"—from the shallow, fearful, superficial ego to the wise, loving, fearless self? Can you commit to your dream for the long haul and for keeps? In this book, best-selling author Steven Pressfield delivers the tough-love inspiration to help you make this life-altering transformation.

Inspirational

We are only so lucky to have walked this planet with people like Mr Pressfield.

Loved it

He does make a lot of comparisons to artists and authors but that is what he knows. He is using it to show the point of no matter what you want to become in life you must put your ass where your heart is.
I found it to be very motivating and extremely worth my time.

Loved it.

Near the end, he tells you where the ego is located according to Jung. That visual aid really puts things into perspective.

Steve is the man…

If you haven’t read The War of Art, read it before this book. This book is a deeper dive into one of the aspects of that book. This book is a continuation of Steve’s primary message-do your work! Quit giving in to resistance, quit lying to yourself, quit making excuses, quit keeping yourself busy with miscellaneous work and do the work that matters most. Show up every day, same time, same place and do the most important work, the real work.

The aspect explored in this book is where do you need to be to do your most important work. Steve comes at it from many different angles such as showing up to work, having the right workspace, living in the best place to do your work and so on.

If you loved The War of Art you’ll appreciate this book too. It’s a good mix of reinforcing the main message of The War of Art and going a little deeper on where you need to be to do your most important work.
