Nurturing Creativity

by Susan Gabriel on March 25, 2010

If you are an artist, writer or creative type, I believe that watching this video, brought to you by TED: Ideas worth spreading, will be the best 20 minutes you ever spend.

Watch Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity here.

In this video, NY Times bestselling author, Elizabeth Gilbert, muses on the impossible things we expect from artists and geniuses — and shares the radical idea that, instead of the rare person “being” a genius, all of us “have” a genius. It’s a funny, personal and surprisingly moving talk and will change the way you think about your creativity.

The author of Eat, Pray, Love, Elizabeth Gilbert has thought long and hard about some large topics. Her latest fascination: genius, and how we ruin it.

So what did you think of the video? Did it change the way you think of creativity? Do you believe that your creativity is a way to catch a glimpse of God?  I’d love to hear from you.
