You Are Allowed To Chase Your Craziest Dreams
You shouldn't wake up every morning and hit snooze. You shouldn't count down the hours until your work day is over. You shouldn't hate what you're doing for a living.
You are allowed to chase after your craziest dreams — and you should chase after those dreams — because you are going to regret letting them slide by. You are going to regret taking the path of least resistance. You are going to regret choosing a comfortable life over a fulfilling life.
You are going to regret working a 9 to 5 job that makes you miserable when you could be doing what you love for a living.
You are allowed to decide that a life sitting behind a desk is not for you. You are allowed to say no to working the job that makes the most sense, the job that requires the least amount of work, the job that is technically your safest route.
You are allowed to decide you do not want to follow the career path your parents have been pushing you to take since you were a child. You are allowed to decide that you aren’t actually going to use the degree you spent years earning.
You are allowed to change your mind about what you want from life after you graduate, after you are already a grown adult. You are allowed to believe that it is never too late. You are allowed to do something for yourself for a change.
You are allowed to ignore all of the people who tell you that following your heart is a bad idea. You are allowed to ignore them when they say you are not good enough to succeed. You are allowed to ignore them when they tell you to give up.
You are allowed to take risks, even though you might end up running low on rent money each month. You are allowed to follow your craziest dreams, even though other people might judge you for it. You are allowed to follow your passion, even though you might go through hell before getting what you want.
You are allowed to do what you love, even if that means you are going to have to leave your big apartment and find a smaller one. Even if that means you are going to have to clip coupons for a while. Even if that means you are going to have to work longer hours and take shorter breaks.
You are allowed to live a life that makes you happy. You are allowed to love your career. You are allowed to become one of those rare people who say they would continue working their job, even if they didn’t get paid to do it, because it brings them happiness.
You shouldn’t wake up every morning and hit snooze. You shouldn’t count down the hours until your work day is over. You shouldn’t dread Mondays. You shouldn’t wish for vacation. You shouldn’t hate what you’re doing for a living. You shouldn’t spend forty hours a week miserable.
You are allowed to be brave and take a chance. You are allowed to have faith that you will one day succeed. You are allowed to do something wild. You are allowed to chase after your craziest dreams.
