About this listen
I have a theory about the "Hero's Journey". We all have one. We have many, in fact. But our primary hero's journey is the passage we live out, in real life, before we find our calling. The hero's journey ends when, like Odysseus, we return home to Ithaca, to the place from which we started.
What then?
The passage that comes next is the "Artist's Journey".
On our artist's journey, we move past resistance and past self-sabotage. We discover our true selves and our authentic calling, and we produce the works we were born to create.
You are an artist too - whether you realize it or not, whether you like it or not - and you have an artist's journey. Will you live it out? Will you follow your muse and do the work you were born to do?
Ready or not, you are called.

I love this book!! Thank you Steven Pressfield
Once again, this is exactly what I needed to hear. How to keep going with The Work. So grateful already and will re-listen again and again I'm sure. I love the fact that Steven's the one reading it too - he expresses things so well. If you know you're creatively called, this will help.

Great book!
At first, I almost didn’t purchase the book as I was reading the reviews and some readers believe that there’s nothing new there in comparison to the previous books.
I already consumed all the previous titles and the new one “ Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be” and I can say isn’t the same.
Okay, there are some repetitive elements indeed but this time Steven went deep on the philosophical aspect of the” muse “ and our life purpose. Yes, he mentioned that before, but not with the same approach as he did in this book, especially in the last chapters of the book.

Decent motivation
There are some great nuggets in here and lands the way a motivational captain might, swinging in with a jagged knife clenched in his teeth.

Surprisingly Brilliant!
Stick with this one; let it get into your head. Initially the narrative was slightly irritating but I stuck with it & found it hugely inspirational. Unlike other books which just spill out the same old stuff about working hard & thinking differently, if you're looking for moving up a level, this is definitely for you. I loved it & will be listening again as I think I will pick up bits that perhaps I missed on my first listen. Love it!

HOPE BLESSED HOPE
i consider Mr. Pressfield MY COACH and I really believe his series on "The War of Art" including this book and Turning Pro are divinely inspired. His suggestion that Gates of Fire is in the same vein IS TRUE and if you haven't read it YOU SHOULD 100% He covers FEAR beautifully there.

Incredible in content, not ideal in form
An amazing book with amazing message, a must read for any artist or anyone making anything! But... I think the book really was written to be a book not an audiobook and although Steven did his best and adapted it well, the short chapters and the speed with which he read were at times hard to follow. I think I will read it too. Not impossible to understand by any means though. Enjoy!
