What I see in different shades of gray, from behind my reading glasses
Steven Pressfield inspires:
Even if we’re working a full-time job, waitressing, driving an Uber, juggling kids and ex-husbands and all the other heartaches and the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to, we’re in the same boat with many, many full-time, big-name professional artists and entrepreneurs.
Steven Pressfield’s new self-published novel “A Man At Arms” is out, and despite being an award winning author/playwright/you-name-it, he still feels way out of his comfort zone promoting his work. And yet he does it, because:
We can’t let ourselves be too scared to sell ourselves.
Got made redundant, & looking for a new job? Wanting that promotion at work? Telling your secret love how you feel about him/her? Unfortunately, most things involve selling.
.. Deep Change (in our real lives as well as in fiction) happens not in clamorous, action-filled moments but in quiet, pensive beats when the human heart, at the finish of a protracted, often unconscious, process of evolution concludes and cements its transformation.
