The war of art by Steven Pressfield

I just wanted to share something I just read in this book on my paperback copy of the war of art. Book one: Resistance. Page 23. Title: Resistance and sex. " Sometimes resistance takes the form of sex, or an obsessive preoccupation with sex. Why sex? Because sex provides immediate and powerful gratification. When someone sleeps with us, we feel validated and approved of, even loved. Resistance gets a big kick out of that. It knows it has distracted us with a cheap, easy fix and kept us from doing our work. Of course not all sex is a manifestation of Resistance. In my experience, you can tell by the measure of hollowness you feel afterward. The more empty you feel, the more certain you can be that your true motivation was not love or lust but resistance. It goes without saying that this principle applies to drugs, shopping, masturbaiton, TV, gossip, alcohol, and the consumption of all products containing fat, sugar, salt, or chocolate."
