  @CaylaCatz I never read or watched 'Eat Pray Love' but 'Big Magic' was recommended and I loved it. Worth reading I think. And in kind of similar vein, Pressfield's 'War of Art'

  Or create that image. As Elizabeth Gilbert says in Big Magic, you should listen to the Muse or eventually she'll stop whispering ideas in your ears

  I agree with Gilbert. Ignore the muse often enough and she'll go find another person to play with.

  I never read any of those books. What brought it up?

  Sorry . . . now, when I did read Big Magic? Not quite sure of the direction of the question
