Fight for your dreams not someone else’s.
There can be manipulative mentors that try to re-live their lives through yours. They try to get you to subscribe to a plan that they wanted to accomplish.
These are the folks that failed law school or dropped out, so they tell you how great of a lawyer you would be.
These are the parents that try to get you to marry a particular type of man, (“baby he’s tall, has a good job, you better stay with him”) even though he cheated on you…for the second time.
Ask yourself why am I chasing this dream? Why is it so important to me?
If your thoughts are solely rooted in someone else telling you to do it, then today may be the day to re-evaluate what YOU want.
Your happiness is on the line here. 5-10-15 years from now you want to be able to be comfortable in your own skin. Fulfilled because you are living your aspirations.
Wouldn’t it but it be sad to wake up one day and realize that you are what someone else wanted you to be? Just something to think about.
