Coffee Thoughts \ The Shadow Side of Talent

“Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads.” --Erica Jong

Becoming the best at what you do, or just entering the competitive arena, is never easy. You’ve got to have tough skin to endure judgment and criticism, to cope with jealousy and ignorance and to hold on to your beliefs when your talent is ignored or deemed irrelevant. Your destiny is in your hands, you have to have faith and persevere. And to find that strength, you need to accept all of you.
