This definitely reads like you’re scrolling through someone’s tumblr.

This book is what happens when a marketing professional tries to rewrite the amazing War of Art. It rambles and the stories are haphazard and there is very little new here. Read Pressfield; it is far shorter and much better.

I need to re-listen to this. I listened to it during a commute and would start thinking about what was said and how it applied to my work…and then feel like I needed to re-listen to sections. Good ideas, though.

I really enjoyed the start of it, but it felt like everything could have been in maybe 100 pages instead of almost 300. Lost me after the first 100 pages and won me back in the last 50. Would have given a better rating if I just had skipped the middle.

Practice, creativity, leadership, motivation. Similar to The War of Art (but more uplifting?).

What can I say? Another one of Seth Godin's books, which makes me feel motivated to get to work and defeated that I've accomplished so little in my life so far.
This particular book pairs up well with The Artist's Way, with most of the ideas dovetailing nicely. Godin's book is more focused on creating 'art' or 'work' for a particular audience rather than self-fulfillment, but the basic ideas are the same.
Recommended for fans of Godin's other books, and for people in search of a motivation to get going on all those ideas sitting at the back of your head that you figure you'll get to 'someday'. Today is the day.

Calling all artists - no matter what your art may be -- this is the book you need to read and reread when you've descended into the inevitable low point. These words will lift you up and on your way again. Because you must keep going!
