Following my dream

After reading an article online (19 Reasons To Ignore Everybody And Follow Your Dreams), I've been more inspired to work harder to achieve my goals and dreams in life. In the past,  I was a doormat letting everyone step on me and control my life. That old me is gone! I've become a stronger person now and I will no longer let anyone tell me what I can and can't do.They have no right to tell me what to do with my life because this is my life and I will choose to live it the way I want to live.

I've never really told anyone that I want to be in the fashion industry because I know that I would be made fun of and laughed at. In the past, I have hinted about me wanting to be part of the fashion world, but all they've said was "you've just lost your men card". Even the ones that I have loved laughed at my idea. I was hurt by their jokes and laughs, but their criticism made me even stronger. I love the saying, "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me". They can say whatever they want to say about me because at least I know that I am living the life that I want to live. I want to prove those who have mocked me and laughed at me in the past that they're wrong. If you have a dream you want to achieve in life, don't let anyone and yourself keep you from accomplishing your goals. Start working to achieve your goals now. You’ll regret it later in life if you don't follow your dreams, and if you’re delaying it, you’ll question yourself why you didn't do it sooner. You can achieve anything in life. Just believe in yourself and don't be lazy:)

  1. I don't know how I ended on your page, but I'm so glad I did. I too had the same problem of being afraid of running after my own dreams because of what others might say, but now I am stronger and I don't give a sh*t about what others say. I hope you achieve your dreams:)
