Writing Actions: Writing to the resistance

Writing to the resistance means writing about why you are having trouble tackling a task, or why you are being frustrated in your investigations. This process may help you break through a puzzle, or identify more clearly what it is about the forms of evidence you are dealing with that makes them difficult. Writing to the resistance works especially well in cases when you feel so perplexed or overwhelmed by a topic that you find it difficult to write about in a systematically logical way. It may help you to trace a rational pattern in chaotic thinking.
