Episode #372
Commitment means physically showing up—put your body where your dream lives—and doing the work despite fear and Resistance.
True commitment catalyzes transformation like the hero’s journey; when you commit, you shift from passive to active and magic happens.
Start before you’re ready and be consistent—an hour a day compounds into real progress as projects self-organize from chaos if you keep showing up.
Put your ass where your heart wants to be.
There's a magic to committing.
The universe and everything we do tends towards order.
If there’s someone who understands you and me— the dreamers, people with goals bigger than their eyes, people who know there’s more inside of them but just haven’t been able to get it out into the world— it’s Steven Pressfield.
His writing is clear and it’s real. It shines light on the real struggle that is your journey to who and what you are meant to be.
If you’re not familiar with his work, Steve is the mind behind the books “Gates of Fire” and “The Legend of Bagger Vance”— the latter having been made into a movie with Matt Damon, Will Smith, and Charlize Theron. He’s also written landmark personal development books like “The War of Art” and “Turning Pro.”
In this episode, we’re talking with Steve about his new book, “Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be” and how magic happens when you commit unconditionally to your dream.
This may be his third time on the Success Through Failure podcast, but Steve has so much more wisdom to share to you, so don’t miss it!
