The Art of Coherence  

How to overcome the fear of being yourself 

Pedro Vivar revisits the strategies of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War with the struggle against creative resistance of Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art, to go a step further and provide tools to achieve personal and creative success. 

The paradox of today’s reality is the confrontation between the individual and the state. The state is an entity, which as such does not exist, but which everyone recognizes as an authority. It is the difference between judgment (personal) and justice (social), between idealism (idea) and the progressive blurring of materialism (reality). All this leads people away from coherence, and consequently into a realm of incongruence and self-censorship. Rather than a indoctrinating system of thought based on this dynamic, the author defends a virtuous model of life which defines and speaks for each individual. 

The Art of Coherence outlines tactics for overcoming an often-paralyzing resistance, developing self-discipline, making strategic decisions and turning weaknesses into strengths.
