Trust your instincts as a writer from "summary" of Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury
There is a voice within each of us that knows what we need to write, what stories we need to tell. It is the voice of our instincts, our intuition, guiding us towards our true purpose as writers. When we learn to trust this voice, to listen to it without question or doubt, we unlock a wellspring of creativity that can carry us to places we never imagined possible. This is the key to becoming a truly great writer - to have faith in our instincts and allow them to guide us on our journey. Our instincts are like a compass, pointing us in the direction of our deepest desires and passions. They know what stories we are meant to tell, what words we are meant to write. When we trust in them, we tap into a source of inspiration that is limitless and inexhaustible. Our instincts are the gateway to our most authentic selves, the part of us that knows what we need to say even before we do. When we doubt our instincts, when we second-guess ourselves or allow fear to cloud our judgment, we stifle our creativity and hold ourselves back from reaching our full potential as writers. We must learn to trust in our instincts, to have faith that they will always lead us in the right direction. This is not always easy - it requires courage and vulnerability to open ourselves up to the unknown, to surrender to the creative process and allow ourselves to be guided by forces beyond our control. But when we do, when we trust in our instincts and allow them to lead us, we discover a power within ourselves that is truly transformative. We tap into a wellspring of creativity that flows freely and effortlessly, carrying us to new heights of inspiration and insight. Our writing becomes more authentic, more resonant, as we learn to listen to the voice within us that knows what we need to say. So trust your instincts as a writer. Listen to the voice within you that knows what you need to write, what stories you need to tell. Have faith in your intuition, in the wisdom that lies at the core of your being. When you do, you will unlock a wellspring of creativity that knows no bounds, and you will become the writer you were always meant to be.
