About 6 years ago I came upon a really amazing book ( well in my case audiobook). I was going through a rough patch in life and I was listening to one of my favorite YouTubers ( Pick Up Limes) inspirational videos. In this video she was sharing some of her favorite books. One of them being Big Magic, written by Elizabeth Gilbert. I was familiar with the name because like everyone else on the world I watched and loved Eat, Pray, Love. Afterwards, I went straight to audible and bought this new book.  It changed my life. I found myself listening and relistening to Elizabeths words over and over. She talks about everything from living creatively, overcoming fears and getting you to build confidence in your creative abilities no matter what it may be. Each time I read the book I find something new that helps me in my journey to being a more confident, creative and fearless person. I will say that I am overcome with fear most of the time. Fear of getting it wrong, fear of the wrong choices, fear of being stuck. There’s plenty of fear here but even so I find that I am now better able to say to myself, why not. Why not try that new hobby, what not try that new food, why not have that new experience.
