Good on ya mate. There is usually always something to write about, just often a task getting it done lol. The book sounds like a good read, is it written mostly as an autobiography of stories or is it self-help style in places?
Nice, I can get down with that. Might have to give one of his fiction books a go, I'm avoiding the whole self-help vibe these days due to an unhealthy obsession when I was younger lol.
I can imagine how that was. I'm mostly done with self help, too. My reason being, that most self help books are useless. You basically only need to read the title and the rest ist fluff.
His fiction is definitely worth a read. Since I read on my kindle, I never remember book titles. Especially in fiction.
I read one of his books about a roman soldiers life. Long time ago. I only remember that it felt pretty gritty and honest.
In that case I would recommend something more exciting.
If you're into fantasy Black Prism by Brent Weeks and if you're into SciFi Red Rising by Pierce Brown.
Red Rising is like crack for the reader. I loved it and couldn't stop reading. It makes you feel every emotion, you can imagine. Mostly anger, though. :)

It's mostly short chapters with a single lesson self-help style. But Pressfield likes to tell tales out of his own life to underline his point.
He's a really interesting character and his fiction is also worth a read.

I agree, you can usually type a title into google and find out more.
I'll keep him in mind for sure, I'm just getting back into reading regularly so it's nice to have someone recommended.
