Elizabeth Gilbert: Uspjeh, neuspjeh i poriv da nastavite stvarati

Uspjeh, neuspjeh i poriv da nastavite stvarati

Elizabeth Gilbert nekad je bila "neobjavljena konobarica iz zalogajnice" poražena odbijenicama. Ali ipak, usred uspjeha  "Jedi, Moli, Voli", našla se kako se identificira sa prijašnjom sobom. Sa divnim uvidom, Gilbert se prisjeća zašto uspjeh može biti dezorijentirajući isto kao i neuspjeh i daje nam jednostavan -- iako težak -- način da nastavimo, bez obzira na ishode.

The aftermath of massive success can feel as disorienting as repeated rejection. After a bestselling memoir, the speaker found herself just as lost as when she was a struggling, unpublished writer enduring six years of rejection letters. The key insight: both triumph and defeat can separate people from their true selves. Only by returning to a central passion—something loved more than ego or outcome—can anyone navigate the unpredictable storms of creative life.
