Eine negative Kraft, die versucht, dich aufzunehmen und zu verlassen. Es will definitiv nicht, dass du das Job machst. Was auch immer es ist. Und die Art, wie Resistenz erscheint, ist als eine Stimme in deinem Kopf. And the voice in your head will tell you a couple of things. One of the things it will tell you is you're not good enough to do this. Who do you think you are?
You're too old, you're too young, you have no skills, you've never done this before. This is a dumb idea. If it's been done before by a million people better than that kind of voice, right? That'll try to force you back and stop you from doing it. The other half of the voice is it will try to distract you.

And it will say, clickbait, you go down this rabbit hole of whatever it is, or let's get drunk, or let's have an affair, or let's go to the beach, let's get whatever, that kind of thing. And after a while you recognize that There is an enemy. The playing field is not level when you sit down to do anything creative or entrepreneurial.

There is this negative force out there that I believe is like the force of gravity. It just exists in the real world. There's nothing you can do about it. Es ist da, es kämpft dich, es wird dich jeden Tag in deinem Leben kämpfen. Ich bin in diesem Geschäft jetzt seit 50 Jahren und die Stärke der Resistenz geht nie weg. and never diminishes. It's the dragon you have to slay every morning anew.

belief in the calling or the thing you're pursuing or else it's easy for that just to to collapse you right yeah and like you say because it never stops it's like you might defeat it you know for a week or two weeks or in training you know or work that you're trying to do and then resistance will even use that success against you and the voice in your head will say oh you've done great for those two weeks you really got licked you know

Let's take the day off, you know, or it's Sunday or, you know, our wife wants to do that, blah, blah, blah. And of course you can't be hardcore 24 hours a day, but you do have to sort of think in marathon terms. You know, I think of this absolutely as a lifetime commitment, you know, when I'm dead, I'll stop worrying about this, but not until then. And so, uh,

Es ist so diabolisch, die Stimme in deinem Kopf, in den nuanced Wegen, die versuchen, dich rauszufaken und dich zu stoppen. Es ist wirklich interessant, was du gemacht hast, Russell, mit deinem Telefon, wo du dich aufmerksam hattest. Aber ich habe das nie gemacht. Aber ich würde mir vorstellen, dass es mich 500 Mal am Tag schlägt.
