Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert
Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert
Content
This book provides inspiration and practical advice on how to develop the courage and discipline to incorporate more creativity into your life. Gilbert provides an incredibly accurate description, at least for me, of the gripping fear that can prevent us from putting our work out there and perspective on how to blow past that fear.

How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett
How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett
Content
This book does two important things. First, it makes an accessible introduction to the new model of cognition as a prediction engine. Second, it uses that architecture to make a new claim about emotions: They're not the basic building blocks that we envision but instead are cultural concepts that we can create and, more importantly, change.

This book brings together a suite of related research in cognition—including distributed, situated, and embodied cognition—that enriches (and corrects) our thinking about thinking. Not only is this research interesting and important, but there are significant implications for what we as talent development professionals do.
