058: 5 Tips for Overcoming the Resistance

Welcome to episode 58 of the Food Blogger Pro podcast! In this episode, Bjork goes solo and talks about overcoming “the resistance.”

One of the hardest things about doing a creative endeavor is simply doing it. Not getting distracted. Not doing other less important things. Not putting it off endlessly because the idea of actually doing it is scary.

This is called the Resistance. The Resistance is what keeps us from moving forward, from trying new things, and from making progress. And we all have it somewhere inside, and it usually shows up much more often then you would like to imagine. But once you are aware of the resistance and what it looks like, you’ll see it everywhere. In this episode, Bjork gives 5 tips that help you overcome the Resistance when it rears it’s ugly head.

In this episode, Bjork talks about:

• What the resistance is and how is presents itself
• How “building your castle” can help you find motivation to create content
• How rewarding yourself for the Work can help you move forward
• Why taking the very first small steps can help you start a seemingly huge project
• Why fixing small things can hinder progress
• Why being too committed can keep you from being outstanding
