ResistanceLand
Welcome to Hell.
Pressfield describes it as “You can’t get no satisfaction. You are bored. You are restless. You feel unloved and unlovable”.
It’s a slippery slope. The moment I think I am in control, I start slipping. The more I slip, the more likely it becomes that I’ll slip further.
Before I know, I keep falling, just like Alice; but instead of Wonderland, I fall into ResistanceLand.
There’s no rabbit here. There’s no wonder here. There are demons. For me they take the shape of mindless YouTube surfing, then checking emails and WhatsApp and what not.
No work gets done in ResistanceLand.
No pleasure is enough, of whatever kind.
Love and happiness are far and away.
Maybe, you might identify with this. Maybe, you have visited ResistanceLand earlier, or maybe you are in it right now.
How do we sign out of here? Or does it say, “You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave”?
