KiyosakiA Q&A with Steven PressfieldQuestion:What is the distinction betweenDo the WorkandWar of Art, the book where you first introduced Resistance? Does Do the Work take it a step further?Steven Pressfield:Do the Workis structured to take the reader from A to Z. If the reader has a project they want to start or complete, such as a new business they want to open or a book they want to write, Do the Work is designed to take them from starting to shipping to hitting all the predictable resistance points along the way. I know you’re familiar with these moments; The beginning, the middle, and all the moments in between just before you ship and then just after you ship.Do the Workguides you from the start of the project and takes you all the way through.It’s about getting off your behind and starting something. And Seth Godin writes about this,   that once you start, you have to finish; you don’t get off the hook half way through. I recently   got an email from a guy who said, "Help. I’m stuck." He was in a class and he had to write a   screenplay and he was a quarter of the way through. Normally I would cheer him on, but just for   fun, I gave him a little program to do; I put on my instructor voice and said, “Do this, do   that, do this, do that.” It worked because right away he got over a couple speed bumps and took   it all the way to the finish line. He loved it! I’d always been too shy to do that before, but I   tried the assertive tone of voice and it really worked--he responded really well to it. So I   thought, let me try that tone of voice inDo the Work.Question:What did you tell him to do?Steven Pressfield:One of the first things I told him to do was to banish the   self-censor. I could tell he was frozen, worrying, "Is this going to be good? Is this going to   be perfect? So I told him, "Take the next five days and write for two hours everyday. I don’t   care what else is in your life--banish it. When you write for those two hours, start on minute   one and don’t think for one second all the way through until minute 120. Just write, don’t self   censor. Don’t do anything." That really seemed to get him moving and gave him permission to not   be paralyzed with seeking perfection.Continue reading our interview   with Steven Pressfield
