TED Talk Tuesday


When was the lasted time you failed?

How did you feel? How did you cope?

We all make mistakes, fail, or face rejection at different times in our lives…

We are devastated and uncertain of our next step.

What will we do next? 

How will we recover and move forward?

Elizabeth Gilbert, author of ‘Eat, Pray, Love,’ faced seemingly endless rejection during her early days as an “unpublished diner waitress.” Despite her later success of ‘Eat, Pray, Love,’ she identified with her former self. In her 2014 TED Talk, Success, Failure, and the Drive to Keep Creating, she reflects on why success can be as troubling as failure. She offers a simple way to move forward and keeping creating.
