Smart failure for a fast-changing world

One of the most inspiring, and thought-provoking, TED Talk I’ve ever seen… so true and current even ten — 10 !!! — years later 😳 😱

It’s OK to feel overwhelmed. Here’s what to do next.

“You would have to be either a sociopath or totally enlightened not to be feeling anxiety at a moment like this. So I would say that the first thing that I would want to encourage everybody to do is to give themselves a measure of mercy and compassion for the difficult emotions that you’re feeling right now
…
The paradox is that we’re also the most capable, resourceful and resilient species that has ever lived on earth. So history has shown that when change comes to humanity — either on the global level, like it’s happening now, or on the personal level — we’re really good at it. We’re really good at adaptation. And I think that if we can remember that, it can help to actually mitigate the fear.”
Elizabeth Gilbert
