Who says you have to start a career at a young age? How young is young anyway, when it comes to starting a career? I'm no longer in my young adult years but I still feel young. I have teenagers who think I'm a cool mom. I'm fine with that. But the one thing I haven't done for my kids is be a good example of following your dream. It's something I firmly believe in yet I haven't done it myself. I want to start a writing career now. I've wanted to for several years now and there has always been one thing after another to keep me from following my dream. For years I have allowed myself to listen to naysayers about my goals and interests. It's kept me down. I am good at motivating my peers, family, kids, but when it comes to me... I get scared. Scared I won't do something right or I won't be good enough. What if the dream I've had all these years proves I'm not good at all. Then where will I be? Well, I will pursue my dreams of my youth. It's my personal makeup.The thing is I like to use my life experiences to tell stories.We all have stories. Some don't want to share their life. I do. It may have taken me a long time to find the road but at least i'm in the game.
young at any age
career | family | joy | self esteem | writing
