#539: Today we're sitting down with New York Times bestselling author Steven Pressfield, who's written multiple books including The War of Art, Turning Pro, Do The Work, and most recently released his memoir, GVT CHEESE. Today he's telling us his story from starting out as a writer, broke & living in a house with no electricity, to becoming one of the most prolific writers of our time. He dives into how to make it as a writer or creator in general, the top qualities of somebody who's successful, and he lays out all the reasons why we as humans are always in our own way & how to get out of those habits that keep us from success.
