Fighting the Inside Dragons (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781790686025)

Your mind isn't broken. It's just doing what it was built to do, and that's the problem.

Ever wonder why you know exactly what you should do, but something inside keeps stopping you? Why the blank page, the unfinished project, or the goal you keep circling back to never seems to move forward, no matter how much willpower you throw at it?

Fighting the Inside Dragons explains why. Not with vague motivational advice, but by walking you through what's actually happening, biologically and mentally, when your brain decides fear, doubt, or resistance is the safer choice. Once you see the mechanism, the blocker stops feeling like a personal failure and starts feeling like something you can work with.

Inside, you'll find:

• A clear explanation of the biological to mental chain behind procrastination, self-doubt, and creative blocks: the "why" most self-help books skip
• Original tools the author developed and tested on himself to interrupt these patterns in real time, built from firsthand trial and error, not borrowed frameworks
• Real stories, including the author's own struggles writing this book: the doubts, the setbacks, and what it actually took to finish it
• Insights and advice drawn from public figures who've faced the same internal battles, so you know you're not fighting this alone

This isn't a book about pretending the resistance away. It's about understanding your own wiring well enough to finally work with it instead of against it.

If you've ever sat down to create, build, or change something, and watched yourself get in your own way, this book will show you exactly what's happening, and what to do about it.
