The uphill battle of doing work that matters
Published on:

If you’re facing a lot of resistance…
Criticism, lack of resources, closed doors, long periods of nothing, distractions, and dead-ends….
Contrary to what the wall in front of you is making you feel:
You might be on the right path.
The resistance you feel? It might be coming from the status quo - the set of deep, resilient systems, or people who benefit from keeping things the same.
You might need to persist for a long time. Ask for help. Change the strategy. Upgrade the story you’re telling yourself.
But if you feel called, and you know in your heart it’s important work:
Don’t give up.
Resistance is a signal you’re on the right track.
The defense wouldn’t be so intense unless you were trying to score and win.
