Summary

I have a theory about the "Hero's Journey". We all have one. We have many, in fact. But our primary hero's journey is the passage we live out, in real life, before we find our calling. The hero's journey ends when, like Odysseus, we return home to Ithaca, to the place from which we started.

What then?

The passage that comes next is the "Artist's Journey".

On our artist's journey, we move past resistance and past self-sabotage. We discover our true selves and our authentic calling, and we produce the works we were born to create.

You are an artist too - whether you realize it or not, whether you like it or not - and you have an artist's journey. Will you live it out? Will you follow your muse and do the work you were born to do?

Ready or not, you are called.

i consider Mr. Pressfield MY COACH and I really believe his series on "The War of Art" including this book and Turning Pro are divinely inspired. His suggestion that Gates of Fire is in the same vein IS TRUE and if you haven't read it YOU SHOULD 100% He covers FEAR beautifully there.

An amazing book with amazing message, a must read for any artist or anyone making anything! But... I think the book really was written to be a book not an audiobook and although Steven did his best and adapted it well, the short chapters and the speed with which he read were at times hard to follow. I think I will read it too. Not impossible to understand by any means though. Enjoy!

Incredible in content, not ideal in form

Elixir for the soul. Embrace this truth and be forever immortal.

Steven speaks and my heart sings...glorious wondrous arias.

Ancient wisdom forged by daemon revelation.

Overcome with a deep sense of peace...as I allow my artists journey to unfold..

With deep gratitude Steven...thank you for allowing your daemic voice to speak!!!

Once again, this is exactly what I needed to hear. How to keep going with The Work. So grateful already and will re-listen again and again I'm sure. I love the fact that Steven's the one reading it too - he expresses things so well. If you know you're creatively called, this will help.

I love this book!! Thank you Steven Pressfield
