Embrace your creativity without fear or selfdoubt from "summary" of Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert
Creativity is a force of enchantment — not a distant, cold, solitary figure, but a warm, inviting presence that asks you to bring your wildest dreams to life. It is a joyful, life-affirming energy that flows through all of us, waiting to be tapped into and expressed. When we let go of our fears and doubts, we open ourselves up to the infinite possibilities that creativity has to offer. Fear and self-doubt are natural companions on the creative journey, but they do not have to be the driving force behind our creative endeavors. Instead of letting these negative emotions hold us back, we can choose to acknowledge them and then move forward anyway. By embracing our creativity with open hearts and minds, we can cultivate a sense of curiosity and wonder that will guide us through even the most challenging of times. Creativity is not about being perfect or original — it is about being authentic and true to ourselves. When we allow ourselves to create without fear or self-doubt, we give ourselves permission to explore new ideas, take risks, and make mistakes. These experiences are essential for growth and learning, and they can lead us to unexpected and delightful places. It is important to remember that creativity is a process, not a destination. There will be times when our ideas flow effortlessly, and times when they seem to dry up completely. This ebb and flow is natural and unavoidable, but it is also what makes the creative journey so exciting and rewarding. By staying open to the possibilities that creativity presents, we can find inspiration in the most unlikely of places and create work that is truly magical. So, let go of your fears and doubts, and embrace your creativity with open arms. Trust in the power of your imagination and allow it to guide you on a journey of self-discovery and transformation. Remember that creativity is a gift that is meant to be shared with the world, so don't hold back — let your light shine brightly and illuminate the world with your unique vision.
