She Would Not Believe How Good She Was
Some people, after having created a nice piece of work, will claim they don't really think it's actually good. They may say it out of false modesty, they may be truly humble, or maybe never in their life did they accept themselves and believe they were good enough. This is sadly the case of Sally Summers.
Sally had always been deeply surprised whenever someone congratulated her art. She either thought people said it out of kindness or pity, or because they didn't have a critical eye for art. However, even if she thought she wasn't up to the mark, she still strived to be the best.
That may be the most admirable thing about Sally. It is tough to fight one's inner demons and go for what you're passionate about. It was this noble determination that gave her success. Of course she was helped by Simon, who insisted Sally created art worth looking at, and buying too.
Sally's experience gives us a great example to follow. Working hard and passionately, surrounding oneself with supportive people and never ceasing to aim for the highest will very likely help us meet our goals without cheating, but solely by our talent and determination.
