Creative people: We’re a different sort, a certain kind of human
being, the fucked up one, the crazy one, the dreamer, the loner, the
dramatic one. Life isn’t black and white or night and day. It’s pantones
and pixels, words and sounds, structures and measurements. Nothing is
simple and nothing is ever enough. Sleeping is hard, class is hard, work
is hard, even relationships are hard. Everything just seems harder,
because it’s never enough. We’re constantly trying to out-do our last
thought, last project, last goal… Our minds work 100miles a minute,
always creating, always innovating, experimenting, designing, writing,
thinking. And you know what, it’s such a beautiful thing. It’s so
amazing because we’re the lucky ones. We’re the ones that still believe
in proving ourselves, following our dreams and have managed to hold on
to our imaginations.
What scares me is that there is so many others just
like us that are too afraid of risks, too scared of rejection or
failure, too shy to explain what’s going on in their head and heart.
People are so worried about what others think, or how the world will
portray them that they never try. They sleep it off, or brush it under
the rug. If this continues, originality and creativity will be
completely dead, because of these spectacular voices that were muted.
It’s crazy to me how the world today is so judgmental. There’s always
someone doing better than you or already ahead of you, right? No one
believes in you, right? You’re not good enough, right? I know cause I’ve
been that person and I’m writing this to tell anyone reading it that
those things and those people don’t matter. They’re not on the same
clock as you. Don’t let them stop you. I’m so happy now that’s because
recently, I hit that nerve. I woke up. I moved the rug and all has
changed. I finally realized that I had to do what’s best for me. In my
case, I had to block out the noise. This incredible stuff that was going
on in my mind was getting silenced because of all the noise. If you’re
one of “us”, you know what noise I’m talking about.
I want you to know
your thoughts matter. Your ideas are gold. Your freedom is yours for the
taking. Don’t conform to what you see and hear. Quit being a product of
your environment just like everyone else. Be the change. Be different.
BeYOUtiful. Forget them. Forget everyone and everything going on around
you, because if you focus all your time on others dreams and goals and
lives and numbers, you’ll only start to be a piece of THEIR puzzle.
That’s when you stop living for you, and you won’t even realize it until
you wake up one day and are watching your CEO park his brand new Benz
right outside the lunchroom. Start now. EVEN if that means blocking out
that noise…Tunnel vision.. Trust me, your life will change as soon as
you listen to your own thoughts, and begin to really focus on them.
Never forget that your dreams are just as important as anyone else’s. A
lot of people give up on their dreams because of fear. Knock that wall
down, that dream is lighting a fire inside of you for a reason, know
why? Because unlike twitter, or the new Jordans, or givenchy tees, or
iphone 5, etc, that dream is ONLY yours. No one else can have it, feel
it, see it, own it…It’s part of your purpose in life. You ARE already
equipped for it, but it’s solely up to you to bring it to life.

we live under the same sky
“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter
the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all
conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that
what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as
someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do
not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse
than seeing someone
who is life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we
are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
