Eat, Pray, Love author warns follow your passion is misleading advice; reveals a stronger driving force for a better life

Renowned author Elizabeth Gilbert, famous for Eat, Pray, Love, advises embracing curiosity over chasing passion. In a video for Acumen Academy, she described curiosity as a steady guide, quietly nudging people toward discovery, unlike passion, which can be fleeting. Gilbert emphasized that consistently following curiosity leads to a unique, creatively lived life. Her works, including Big Magic and All the Way to the River, explore creativity, self-expression, and personal growth.
