The voice inside our head.

Or rather, the voices inside our head.

The voice of Resistance, as Pressfield calls it. The chatter, the self-doubt, the one that makes us procrastinate and then makes us feel guilty for procrastinating, the one that makes us hide, to the point of our detriment. The voice that doesn’t let us go and say ‘Hi!’ to that cute guy or girl we want to talk to.

That voice.

The biggest game that this voice plays is to make us believe that it’s only me who gets all this. It’s only me who procrastinates this much, it’s only me who doubts myself.

Everyone, every single person, has a version of this voice inside their head. This cunning, maleficent voice.

How has this voice affected your life?

What would you have done if you hadn’t listened to this voice?
