Should I Follow My Passion Or Be Realistic?
Ok, I’m at that point now where I’m starting year 11 at school and really have to think of my future and career and stuff like that.The thing is, all my life I have wanted nothing more than to do music for a job and cant imagine being confined to a desk job.Only, I am also very much a realist and had my dreams broken and told by old school teachers and (now) old friends, that I would never be good enough to do that, that being said, no one has ever heard a song I have written, or heard me sing or read the lyrics.I’m not saying I want to be a rockstar or anything, mainly writing the music and lyrics, I’m not particularly fussed who performs them.But the thing is, I dont want to throw my life away on a dream.Even my mum is trying to tell me to be realistic, my 8th grade music teacher was the first to encourage me and she is the only one to hear anything I made.If I cant do music I’ll probably do sports nutrition, but not sure I really want to anymore.
Do I go for it or get real?
thanks
