The writer of Eat, Pray, Love was only following the advice her mother gave her when she pushed her way into becoming an overwhelming success. Lessons learned:
1. Mother is always right.
2. Promote your work with fervor.
3. Don’t give up.
A quote from the story, and I’m not telling you what the grinder sale reference is all about. You’ll have to read it.
“The lesson was obvious. Life was just a big grinder sale. Your job was to knock on the door and not to leave until your ambitions were met.”
