Stay true to your vision from "summary" of Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott
When you start out as a writer, it is crucial to remember why you began in the first place. Your vision, your passion, your unique perspective - these are the things that set you apart from everyone else. It is easy to get lost in the noise of the world, to second-guess yourself, to doubt your abilities. But staying true to your vision means staying true to yourself. In the midst of rejection, criticism, and self-doubt, it can be tempting to conform to what others want or expect from you. But at the end of the day, your vision is what fuels your creativity, your drive, your purpose. It is the North Star that guides you through the darkest of nights. It may not always be easy, especially when faced with obstacles and setbacks, but staying true to your vision is what will ultimately lead you to success. It is important to surround yourself with people who support and encourage your vision, who understand the journey you are on. These are the people who will lift you up when you are feeling down, who will remind you of your worth when you are feeling lost. However, it is equally important to trust your own instincts and intuition, to listen to that inner voice that tells you which path to take. Remember that your vision is not set in stone - it can evolve, grow, change over time. Embrace this fluidity, this flexibility, as part of the creative process. Stay open to new ideas, new experiences, new ways of thinking. But never lose sight of the core of your vision, the essence of who you are as a writer. So, stay true to your vision. Embrace it, nurture it, protect it. Let it be your guiding light in a world full of distractions and noise. And above all, trust yourself. Trust in the power of your vision to carry you through the highs and lows of the writing journey.
