About this listen

The follow-up to his best-seller The War of Art, Turning Pro navigates the passage from the amateur life to a professional practice.

"You don't need to take a course or buy a product. All you have to do is change your mind." (Steven Pressfield, author)

Turning pro is free, but it's not easy. When we turn pro, we give up a life with which we may have become extremely comfortable. We give up a self we have come to identify with and to call our own.

Turning pro is free, but it demands sacrifice. The passage from amateur to professional is often achieved via an internal odyssey whose trials are survived only at great cost, emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually. We pass through a membrane when we turn pro. It's messy, and it's scary. We tread in blood when we turn pro.

What we get when we turn pro. What we get when we turn pro is we find our power. We find our will and our voice, and we find our self-respect. We become who we always were but had until then been afraid to embrace and live out.

I chose it because i was struggling with procrastination on my writing projects & this book along with the war of art just made everything clear.

Thanks Steven!!

A great book

Loved it!! It was over in one go... without any breaks whatsoever. The context was connecting me as I already read The War of Art. But I think the book alone is a good piece of art.

Wonderful work by Steve for amateurs like me

Its a terrible book produced in under 2 days. There is no meat, no structure, no frameworks. It doesn't teach you a single thing that you dont already know.
The entire book can be summed up in one line

Pros are tough
Amateurs are not

When you start listening to the book, you keep waiting in anticipation for the actual matter of the book to arrive, but the intro just rambles on and before you know it the book is over.

What a waste, perhaps I could be a writer too.
