Confidence, Leading with Good Intentions, & Internal Resistance

It is WayMaker Wednesday! Here is this week's powerful question, thought, and resource to help you master your maximized life.

## The Question

What would you do differently today if you knew, with absolute certainty, that you are exactly where you need to be?

## The Thought

Base your confidence in your intentions, not your accomplishments, and lead accordingly.
You are not defined by your fears. You are defined by how you step into the unknown.
You do not control the outcome, but you do control your response. And that changes everything.
This is why your power comes from intention, not past achievements.
What do you base your confidence in?

## Put It Into Action

"The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield

- Why? This concise, energetic book brings to crystal clarity the primary obstacle that is stopping all of us from leading maximized lives.
- You know that feeling, that invisible force pulling you away from the work you know you are meant to do? That is internal resistance. It whispers doubts, fuels procrastination, and keeps you stuck between potential and fear, creation and stagnation, purpose and distraction.
- But here is the truth: The battle is not out there. It is within you. And if you do not fight, resistance wins.
- The War of Art exposes this struggle for what it really is, a war. A daily fight between who you are and who you could become. But it is not just about recognizing resistance. It is about beating it.
- Next week, we take this deeper. Resistance is just one enemy, but what if something even greater is holding you back?
