Stay humble and grateful from "summary" of How to Be a Writer by Ruskin Bond
As a writer, it is important to remember where you came from and to appreciate the journey that has brought you to where you are today. It is easy to get caught up in the excitement of success and forget the hard work and dedication that went into achieving it. By staying humble, you are able to maintain a sense of gratitude for the opportunities that have come your way. Writing is a craft that requires constant learning and growth. No matter how accomplished you may become, there will always be room for improvement. By staying humble, you are able to acknowledge your own limitations and seek out ways to continue developing your skills. This humility allows you to approach your work with an open mind and a willingness to learn from others. Gratitude is also an essential component of being a writer. It is important to recognize the support and encouragement you have received along the way, whether it be from friends, family, or mentors. By expressing gratitude for the help you have received, you are able to cultivate positive relationships and build a strong support network. In the world of writing, there will inevitably be challenges and setbacks. By staying humble and grateful, you are better equipped to navigate these obstacles with grace and resilience. Instead of becoming discouraged by rejection or criticism, you are able to view these experiences as opportunities for growth and improvement.- Staying humble and grateful is not just about being polite or respectful – it is about cultivating a mindset that will allow you to thrive as a writer. By approaching your work with humility and gratitude, you are able to stay grounded, maintain a sense of perspective, and continue growing and evolving as a writer.
