The War of Art - Break Through the Block and Win Your Inner Creative Battles - Steven Pressfield??
"Are you paralyzed with fear? That’s a good sign. Fear is good. Like self-doubt, fear is an indicator. Fear tells us what we have to do. Remember one rule of thumb: the more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it."
"Resistance is experienced as fear; the degree of fear equates to the strength of Resistance.

If it meant nothing to us, there'd be no Resistance.”
