It was a fairy-tale romance for a month and a half, and he convinced me to join him on a romantic month-long. Two weeks later I met a man, and we fell madly in love. Susannah Bailin is the founder and CEO of AdviceCoach, which creates mobile technology to connect authors with readers and gives readers easy ways to act on authorsвЂ™ advice. A year and a half into our marriage, I found out my husband had been having an affair with a 19-year-old for six months. If I had a tool like that, I could simply enjoy the audiobook without worrying about acronyms. Which is when I started thinking about an audiobook that would come bundled with an app or mobile coach to remind me what to do and would also track my progress. I couldnвЂ™t retain the details to create the big magic and transform my why into how and what. In the end, the audiobooks proved to be only inspirational. Christopher Prince is a veteran commercial voiceover artist, promo voiceover artist, audiobook narrator and industrial narrator. All that was left was the voice, the urgency, the way each message was delivered, which I couldnвЂ™t clearly remember. The details of everything I had learned were gone-vanished. And what was that about amplify? Wait, was that from Big Magic? Sadly, however, after just a few days, I couldnвЂ™t remember what I was supposed to do to articulate my why. SinekвЂ™s voice is so compelling that I listened to the entire book driving round-trip from Connecticut to New Jersey. I knew that his passionate reading would keep me riveted and inspired. Listening to Simon SinekвЂ™s book Start with Why was a similar experience.

I felt tired and guilty about the fact that I hadnвЂ™t stopped at the side of the road to write everything down. I was sure that I had forgotten the most important tips. After Big Magic, I felt unsettled and restless. After the memoir I felt teary but deeply satisfied. Another difference between my experiences with GilbertвЂ™s two audiobooks was how I felt at the end of the recording. LetвЂ™s just say that it was exponentially longer than listening to the memoir. Now, can you guess how long it took me to listen to the whole book? What are my beliefs that lead to my limitations? Do I pay attention to the possibility that the belief may not be real? You can imagine how I turned these questions over and over in my mind for the rest of my drive. ThatвЂ™s quite a profound question I needed to pause again to think about it. Seven minutes later, when Gilbert asked, вЂњWhy would I want to keep my limitations?вЂќ I hit pause. вЂњI need to remember this: вЂA creative life is an amplified life.вЂ™ How am I going to remember that?вЂќДЄfter choosing the acronym CLAL as a potential memory trigger, I pushed play. вЂњStop! DonвЂ™t go on,вЂќ I said out loud to my carвЂ™s odometer. In contrast, after only 10 minutes into Big Magic, I pressed pause.

Listening to Eat, Pray, Love was a long, delicious ride of emotional highs and lows over two days.
