Book of the Week (#56): Big Magic

The subtitle is Creative Living Beyond Fear. A wonderful book read by the author herself: Elizabeth Gilbert.


The most popular of her book is: Eat Pray Love, over 10 million copies have been sold worldwide and it is considered as one of the most iconic, beloved, and bestselling books of our time. I saw the movie and read that book after.


This book is as good as, if not better than that book. I was hooked since I started listening to it and I totally agree with what I read on her website.


Readers of all ages and walks of life have drawn inspiration and empowerment from Elizabeth Gilbert’s books for years. Now this beloved author digs deep into her own generative process to share her wisdom and unique perspective about creativity. With profound empathy and radiant generosity, she offers potent insights into the mysterious nature of inspiration.


There are 176,335 ratings on GoodReads and has 13,701 reviews.


Here are some most inspiring quotes from this amazing book.


“Do whatever brings you to life, then. Follow your own fascinations, obsessions, and compulsions. Trust them. Create whatever causes a revolution in your heart.”


“You can measure your worth by your dedication to your path, not by your successes or failures.”


“It’s a simple and generous rule of life that whatever you practice, you will improve at.”


“A creative life is an amplified life. It’s a bigger life, a happier life, an expanded life, and a hell of a lot more interesting life. Living in this manner—continually and stubbornly bringing forth the jewels that are hidden within you—is a fine art, in and of itself.”


I recommend this book without any reservation. 👍👍👍
