Where's @DrX when you need him

lol

I can feel the OP pain, my advice is too follow his dreams and just know what the consequences are.....do u want to risk security and your family for something thats not guaranteed?

if the answer is yes join this adventure of uncertainty, no rules, its like the wild wild west....1 min u can be totally fukked, the next day u might be on top of the world, only to be totally fukked again.....

really dream chasing is living a life of contradictions....you'll go from being shyt to having people see u as the shyt....but sometimes u gotta roll the dice, who knows

maybe it may work or u might end up a cashier at the mall and getting fired by people with absolutely no talent or ambition in life

We grow everyday. People saying they don't know what they want to do with their life seem to believe you can only do one thing with your life and die.
Regardless of your age you should have something on the horizon. What that something is, is entirely up to you and depends on your personal definition of happiness and success.
Your first lesson should be to stop comparing your life with the lives of others. They define success and happiness the way that suits them, not the way it should suit you.
My advice. Read The Alchemist. It's a short book and should invigorate your desire to pursue your dreams.

Life is like swimming jump in the water and go for it

No one ever learned to swim by standing on the shore

Get your ass off the shore and start swimming

It's as simple as that ... no one is going to change their life by whining about it

As Yoda said:There Is No Try Only Do

Yeah I'm 21 and I did not think about why I wanted to go to college and what I wanted now I'm about to graduate next summer with a sociology degree and shyt has been. Making me miserable. Life I've had breakdowns in class and left in the middle of it several times. Fortunately my debt probably gonna be 15k and I've got a supportive family. I honestly want to be an mc and a producer and also a writer, a photographer and graphic artist. I can say all of that really saved my life because I truely discovered that while my dream is very hard to achieve I know I have what it takes to make it because my whole idea is something that simply nobody else is different. I'm trying to be like Damon Albarn and craft music in its own world of which I decide what the rules are.

I live in Orlando and I hear all the other rappers and I know I'm better than them I know my music sounds more different, idk how long I'll be chasing my dream but honestly if I don't make it as a rapper I could be a good photographer or some shyt

I have multiple skills now, it's all about effort and I can't stress this enough YOU MUST BE COMPETITIVE. You have to be controllably delusional as I like to say. Whatever you're good at you just gotta think you better than everyone, and you gotta act like that's what you are and you have to do things someone who's the best will do

I'm like that with my music, I listen to my friends music and it's good but to me I'd shyt all over them, and if it came to it I would prove I'm better you gotta have that killer instinct cause it's dog eat dog either you gonna eat or starve most people at the top of their profession had to battle for that position you won't be shyt if you ain't willing to fight for it
