Let go of what you think you have to become.
When you let go of what you believe that you should be - what the world is trying to tell you to be - and listen to who you are deep down inside, true magic begins to happen. Everything in this world is making an attempt to drag you towards the middle where mediocrity lives. It's telling you that you ought to be this way, dress this way, talk this way, like this music, do these things , and the list goes on and on.
Forget all of the "should be" nonsense and start listening to your gut.
Naturally, the more you express yourself and put yourself out there the more negative criticism will come your way. That's just the name of the game. There will be every force imaginable to bring you back down into the middle where mediocrity lives. Don't fall for that trap. Keep being yourself and act as a light for others to follow. Eventually everyone else will come around.
You have to be willing to risk.
If you're going to gamble on your dreams, you better be ready to feel the pressure from the giant outside forces of normality. I did not understand that at the beginning. I believed that this force trying to bring me back in was the right thing to follow. Wrong. And in numerous cases I discovered that the voice murmuring deep within me was the right thing to do because that is where my purpose and passion lived. If I paid little attention to that I might be forever living in deep regret.
Chase your dreams because they are your passions. Chase them because they make your heart light up when you talk about them. Dreams will never send you in the wrong direction, and in fact, they may actually save your life. The only thing you really have to understand is that there's a whole lot of pressure to handle when you are chasing your dreams into the land of the unknown, and if you're willing to suffer through that, you can do anything.
Be happy being different. Make the sacrifices it takes to execute your dreams. You never can truly know when you will be taken from this place, so you might as well give yourself the best chance possible to go out with a big bang and begin to follow your dreams.
Of course it might not work out, but what if it really does? What if everything you've ever dreamed of comes true? Wouldn't that just be incredible?
