Reasons why you should read BIG MAGIC.

Elizabeth Gilbert takes you on a whimsical journey. All though it might seem confusing at times, she takes her time to explain what is what.
 BIG MAGIC lifts up a weight from our shoulders of notions of helping the world be a better world. It immediately takes effect as you feel lighter and lighter and ready to take on the knowledge that she is going to provide you with. If helping the world is what you love, then do it. Don't take up this task as if it's a job that you should do. Liz Gilbert talks about how ideas are individual beings in this universe and they are constantly in search of receptive souls who will help them reach the universe as songs, as books and so on. She helps us how to not feel immense pain when we encounter failure.  You must always move onto the NEXT project or whatever it is. She tells us how to not put on responsibility on our God given talents/vocation/hobby.  All what is needed from us is to release it onto the universe regardless of what the outcome is.
In short,

• Your work must be fun and serious.
• It doesn't have to provide a favorable outcome right now.
• Your work might and might not matter at all.

And above all , if the outcome is favorable or not, always work and if you ever find yourself stuck in between move , always move onto the NEXT. Don't just sit and stare at the wall.
