I was deeply moved by the TED talk that I’ve attached below where Elizabeth Gilbert of “Eat, Love, Pray” fame talks about what I’ll inelegantly call the fear of failure. You’ll see how inadequate and inelegant that description of what she covers in this talk is when you watch it. Having written a book myself, and regularly running workshops to get people over the line in relation to writing their own books, the fact that the whole success/failure thing can keep us in denial about who we really are, and what really matters, is what grabbed me by the throat when I watched this. I wonder how it will grab you?
