...watch this video from TED.
Writers, when you get those rejection letters. Watch this.
Guys, when you feel weak, watch this.
Gals, when you feel you can't measure up, watch this.
You're welcome.

Thank you for this!
ReplyDeleteInteresting that my editor called while I was in the middle of watching. She just wanted to tell me about their new system for copyedits, but for a moment I feared she was going to say "why are you watching YouTube when you should be doing your revisions? Stop procrastinating!"
I guess that's guilt rather than shame.
You're welcome! Yep, totally guilt.:) But it was worth it, don't you think?
DeleteIt is my firm belief that if the world started with TED talks every morning, it'd be a much better place.
ReplyDeleteProbably so. My kid learns more from watching Word World and Curious George than he does from my lame attempts at education. Maybe I should just stream TED and let him watch.
DeleteI love the distinction she makes between "guilt" and "shame."
ReplyDeleteme, too.
