Stay humble in the face of success and never forget your roots from "summary" of The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino
In our pursuit of success, it is easy to become consumed by our achievements and lose sight of where we came from. We may start to believe that we are above others, that we are invincible, that we no longer need to remember the struggles and challenges that once defined us. But this is a dangerous path to tread, for it is in our humility and connection to our roots that we find true wisdom and strength. As we climb the ladder of success, we must remember that every step we take is built upon the foundation of our past experiences. Our roots, our upbringing, our values - these are the anchors that keep us grounded amidst the storms of life. They remind us of who we are, where we come from, and what truly matters in the grand scheme of things. When we achieve success, it is crucial to remain humble in the face of our accomplishments. Humility is not a sign of weakness, but rather a mark of true greatness. It is the ability to acknowledge that we are not infallible, that we still have much to learn, that there is always room for growth and improvement. By staying humble, we open ourselves up to new opportunities and possibilities. We are able to connect with others on a deeper level, to learn from their experiences, to empathize with their struggles. In this way, we become not just successful individuals, but compassionate and empathetic human beings. Success is not just about reaching the top; it is also about staying true to ourselves and our values along the way. It is about remembering where we started, who helped us along the journey, and how we can give back to others who are still on their own path to success. In doing so, we not only honor our roots but also pave the way for future generations to follow in our footsteps.
