Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity

http://www.ted.com/talks/elizabeth_gilbert_on_genius.html





Elizabeth Gilbert faced down a ­premidlife crisis by doing what we all secretly dream of – running off for a year. Her travels through Italy, India and Indonesia resulted in the megabestselling and deeply beloved memoir Eat, Pray, Love, about her process of finding herself by leaving home.


Selected quotes:

''Being a genius instead of having a genius''
- refering to point in time were peoples beliefs changed. Instead of genius coming from without, from a higher source it now came from within.
