Steven Pressfield is the author of The Legend of Bagger Vance, Gates of Fire, Tides of War, Last of the Amazons, Virtues of War, The Afghan Campaign, Killing Rommel, The Profession, The Lion's Gate, The War of Art, Turning Pro, Do the Work, The Warrior Ethos, The Authentic Swing, An American Jew, Nobody Wants to Read Your Sh*t, The Knowledge, and The Artist's Journey.
His debut novel, The Legend of Bagger Vance, was adapted for screen. A film of the same title was released in 2000, directed by Robert Redford and starring Matt Damon, Will Smith and Charlize Theron.
His father was in the Navy, and he was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad, in 1943. Since graduating from Duke University in 1965, he has been a U.S. Marine, an advertising copywriter, schoolteacher, tractor-trailer driver, bartender, oilfield roustabout, attendant in a mental hospital and screenwriter.
His struggles to earn a living as a writer (it took seventeen years to get the first paycheck) are detailed in The War of Art, Turning Pro, The Authentic Swing, Nobody Wants to Read Your Sh*t, and The Knowledge.
There's a recurring character in his books, named Telamon, a mercenary of ancient days. Telamon doesn't say much. He rarely gets hurt or wounded. And he never seems to age. His view of the profession of arms is a lot like Pressfield's conception of art and the artist:
"It is one thing to study war, and another to live the warrior's life."

该书主要分四块，第1，2和4都可以，讲述Resistence，Professionism和Territoriy。思路基本是超越Resistence，转向Profession，拓展自己领域的Territory。创新思维处在低谷时翻翻很不错。
评分This book is unreal.
评分讲的是老掉牙的道理：别拖延，干起来。但仍然有激励的作用。最后1/3有点玄乎，就没意思了
评分怎么标签都乱标，这是一本关于resistance和拖延的书；语言简练，一口气读完的好书
评分轻松读物：拖延症患者必看！摘抄要点：越对我们灵魂紧要的事情，我们越是忍不住去拖延；反之，你总是在拖延的事情，就是最该去干的。拖延的终极原因是害怕失败；大多数人只有在生命尽头才意识过来自己早该干嘛去了。专业艺术家不会允许自己的私生活一团糟，因为这样妨碍工作；反而艺术爱好者、文艺青年，总是各种戏剧性、各种搞不定，其实是在用乱七八糟的生活琐事拖延真正该做的工作。消费娱乐产品和消费物质一样，都是将有限的时间花在拖延上面，因为消费的快感简单容易，但真正的工作漫长、艰辛、而且可能没有成功作为回报。但是对真正的艺术家来说，能够研究自我已经是一种回报，而且无论如何消费、折腾、拖延，没有好好干活的艺术家最后都不可能满足，永远都会处于无聊、焦躁的状态中。专业艺术家知道，成功和快乐一样，都是可有可无的副产品。
