“The more important a call or action is to our soul’s evolution, the more Resistance we will feel toward pursuing it.”
— Steven Pressfield
Simplified Meaning:
When something is very important for our personal growth or deep inside our heart, we'll often find it harder to start or continue doing it. Think about when a student really wants to learn a new skill, like playing the piano. Because it means a lot to him, he might feel really nervous and keep putting it off, even though he knows how much it could improve his life. This feeling of nervousness or wanting to avoid it is called Resistance. It can happen because big changes can be scary or because we're afraid of failing. To fight this Resistance, one can start by taking small steps every day, focusing on the progress instead of the fear. By being consistent, just like the student practicing the piano a little every day, we can overcome Resistance and grow stronger in the process.
