So today me and one of my bestfriends Tamara finished classes early and took a walk into our local town and had a well needed catchup. The topic of conversation was our futures and like things we want to do with our lives, and it made me realise alot about life and i thought i would share it with whoever wanted to read this.
Tamara is an amazing dancing, she mainly does ballet but i think she does like other styles on the side, and she was talking about how she would really love to pursue dance for her career but it is also really risky because that means she wouldnt have a proper degree to rely on as she gets older. She had also been offered this amazing audition with some really good ballet production which only a few people can be selected for, however she's scared that it will be too intimidating and what if she fails, and all the other questions that come with big decisions were thrown at me (of all people).
My goal was to make her go, but overall it made me think alot about myself and my approach to life, so here are a few of my new life mottos's:
1. Whats the worst that could happen?
Relating back to my friends situation, she was thinking about not doing it because she was 'too scared', but i said to her what can you actually be scared of?! In every situation there is always a risk, going to the shops could be bad but most people arent scared of that because its highly unlikely anything bad will happen (yes i am aware that example was terrible). I know that an audition is alot more intimidating but the worst thing that could happen is that they say 'no'; and if they do, so what?! like seriously you have to give it a shot atleast!
2. Do things now before its too late.
Tamara will only get one shot at this as auditions are so rare, so i was saying to her what is the point in passing up on it? She will only look back later in life and think 'what if i did go' 'where would i be now?' because there are so many possibilities that could come from just going. This is the same with anything in life, as each day passes thats a day less you get in life, how depressing. But my message is true, why wait untill tomorrow when the opportunity might have passed?
3. Watch Zoella's video 'Just say yes'
Everything she refers to in that video covers every single view i have on life, and she explains it in such a good way. Please if you are reading this now and havent seen it, just watch it. It is so inspiring and so true. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG-WbtoAf2k
This blog was a little different and quite short but i have been in a very reflective mood today so i thought id share that with you. Have a nice day
