Publisher's summary

Could you be getting in your way of producing great work? Have you started a project but never finished? Would you like to do work that matters, but don't know where to start? The answer is Do the Work, a manifesto by best-selling author Steven Pressfield, that will show you that it’s not about better ideas, it’s about actually doing the work. Do the Work is a weapon against Resistance - a tool that will help you take action and successfully ship projects out the door.

“There is an enemy. There is an intelligent, active, malign force working against us. Step one is to recognize this. This recognition alone is enormously powerful. It saved my life, and it will save yours.” For other titles like Do the Work, visit thedominoproject.com for more information.

Great information now it is up to me to do the work.

I like to hear that others struggle like I do. It makes me realize that I can do just what they have done.

I am excited now to get out and do the work as Pressfield says. Get out of the muck, and resistance I'm putting on myself and do it. Now it is my work to get it done.

I am going to do the work. Thank you Mr. Pressfield.

Creators, Steven Pressfield is your jam!

Pressfield has incredible insight and strategic philosophies based on ample creative experience. The War of Art and Do the Work are as brilliant a pair of companion tomes for creatives, as the Tao te Ching and the Art of War are for life and business. If you haven't heard the word, get to it. Pressfield knows your mind and aims to help you do the untangling you need to move through your work with verve and commitment toward powerful completion.

Rare and life changing, even for the most talented and prolific.

On constant replay loop. The kick in ass.

This is the number one motivating, fear destroying, kick in the ass, volume of wisdom always on my playlist.

BEST book on real art of manufistation!

I came across this book just at right time for me. Just when I was ready to quit. Now I know that it is just a part of the journey.
Part of what is written in the book I new intuitively, but the author put everything in the right place and now the picture is complete!

Another brilliant installment of Steven Pressfield’s IDGAF philosophy

Well, folks, Pressfield’s done it again. While his core values and principles continue to revolve around the concept of “resistance”, Pressfield adds some wonderful layers of hard truth, productivity hacks, and good ole fashioned inspiration in “Do the Work”. Highly recommended as a companion to “the War of Art”. I loved this book, and I even recommend it over his other book, “Turning Pro”, if you’re reading his series back to back.

Stephen Pressfield is the creator's new personal hero!

And by creator, I don't mean God almighty, but all us grunts here on the planet, creating with a small C. I'm not alone in thinking so. Screenplay guru, Robert McKee, author of 'Story', wrote a brilliant introduction to Pressfield's first book about creator vs. resistance, 'The War of Art'. Seth Godin was so impressed with the book that he tracked Stephen down so that he could help publish this book: 'Do the Work'.

This book is short, and all the more powerful for it. In reading/listening to it, anyone set on creating anything will gain new insight into their creative process, and walk away with practical and immediately applicable skills to complete and ship the object of their love.

Do yourself a favor and get the audiobook version. Pressfield is a brilliant narrator and brings his book to life in a way that made me smile and chuckle and laugh and cry.

Is it worth the price of admission? Hell yes. (oops - sorry, God!)

Steven Pressfield always delivers!

“The War of Art” is one of my favorite books to read, re-read, gift and recommend! It changed my thinking as a creative. “Do the Work” drives the point home very succinctly. Face the Resistance, do the work!

If u want REAL motivation, here it is!

Genius book, lite, and great explanation of what you should do in order to pursue your ideas.

A must read to get over yourself & move to greater

A worthwhile read to get over whatever hurdles and move towards your greatest self. No excuses; no alibis, just do the work and reap the rewards.

Great necessary book

I loved it! Do the Work was smart, practical and motivating. Steven Pressfield nailed it. Awesome
