Think back when you were younger. How exciting life could be. How great you wanted to be. An astronaut was the highest (literally) while being a life saving fireman or police officer was position that you wanted to stay at or above. My point, is that some of us have settled. We’ve become people we don’t know. Life is confusing, we seem to lose our morals for what we think could be happiness or another notch on the totem pole.
Would your younger self be happy with that? When you were young, you wanted greatness, sure you had been naive, but life’s jerks and complications are no reason to sacrifice your real beauty. A person’s opinion of you should never become your reality. Be who you are, a person you know you’d be happy with.
You have big dreams? That’s great, that means you’re aiming high. Just remember that with your extremely high goals, there will be people already there that may try to knock you down. Not only that but there are people that will make you think you need to break a part of yourself to get to where you want to go. When I say break, I mean morally, and THOSE situations are best walked away from. Don’t lose passion for your goal. There’s a way to get there while having outstanding talent and keeping what you *should* value on together. Be the whole package.
With each decision, remember what your younger self would think. You’ll make mistakes and mess up, that’s normal. Don’t break that wonderful person you are underneath the make up, muscles or colored hair. Stay beautiful (inside).
