Well, the question is there. Did you follow your dreams? or you just said forget the dreams and lived life to make money? and are you happy? I just really need to know how many people follow their Dreams.....
I'd imagine the amount isn't that high. It's funny, they say it's so difficult to accomplish your "dreams," (always "oh, you have a higher chance of winning the lottery than making it in hollywood or in the NBA"), but when you think about it, how many people do you know that have actually followed their dreams. Personally, I feel like I'm at the middle point, if there was one. 24 years old, no children, but almost starting to see enough of the real world to say "well, maybe dreams don't come true?" However, the candle that is my dream is still lit, it only flickers (no, it's not to be in the NBA).
I don't really wanna do the regular grind, but I don't really have a dream either............confused man, I'm 24, approaching 25, I need to make a decision soon
I had the epiphany that you truly only live once dawn upon me at a young age. So I've always sworn to myself that I'd live every bit of it like so. Following dreams included. I've always told everyone around me that a bullet will be in my head before I settle for a career working in a cubicle. No offense to anyone working in a cubicle, that's just not for me or how I want to spent my working years on earth. I've sworn to myself my line of career will be work that I'd never consider "work" because I'd be doing it for love if I wasn't getting paid. So I've been following many dreams, setting up many egg baskets and having a great time along the way. No regrets.
Y O L O *Screeeeech BANG!* When I was younger, I tried that, then poverty humbled me. However, I'm trying again, but not all in. I'm working a 9-5 then going home and starting a business.
Yes. In the mid nineties, I worked for this great company, but was in a band at the time. We had an opportunity to sign with a big mgmt. company out of New York, so we did. I left my job and played music full time. 3 albums, pretty decent success, 1000's of shows, toured all over. I lived my dream, it was fantastic and not so much at the same time. I wish I had been a little wiser. The music industry can be total S*** at times, but I have no regrets. I learned so much and am content with the ride it took me on.
The reason I just want to know is to see HOW MANY PEOPLE ACTUALLY GO THROUGH AND FOLLOW THEIR DREAMS. I'm a Dreamer and I want to be one of those people to make my Dreams come true. But lately I've been having many problems and it seems like I might have to sacrifice my Dream but I am unwilling to do so. I know that my Dream might be a Long Shot but I know that it seems like it would make me happy at least giving my Dream a shot and not saying "What if" in the future.. It just seems like people say that "Dreams Don't Come True" but they are the ones that never tried to make it happen. I value my dream a lot and I expect a lot out of my dream and that becomes the driving force to make it happen. I don't wanna sacrifice my Dreams and I wanna see what other people have done... I'm also sick and tired of people telling me that "I can''t achieve my goals" when in fact I know I can if I put in the hard work and keep striving to achieve it. So.....
