Do I Need A Personal Website to Sell Art? 10 of 30

Steven Pressfield

Wrote a great book for breaking through artist blocks.  It is called The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles. Here is a great quote on page 22.

        “The most pernicious aspect of procrastination is that it can become habit. We don’t just put off our lives today, we put them off till ours deathbed.
        Never forget: This very moment, we can change out lives.  There never was a moment and never will be, when we are without the power to alter our destiny.  This second we can turn the table on Resistance. 
        This second, we can sit down and do out work.”

It is a great book.  The advice, and lessons it contains are priceless.  It is less than Ten bucks.  I like it so much, I will not lend it  anyone.
