People will tell you that you dream too big. That you won’t reach the stars. To settle for less, to settle for “steady” and “good enough.” They’ll tell you to view the glass as half full and half empty, right in the middle. Color in the lines. Think inside the box. Never speak your mind and never follow your heart and work until your fingers are numb.
But I’m telling you now: defy them. Deny it. Fight back.
Your dream is not too big. Your eyes should remain on the prize. Drown out the voices that say you’re not enough and way too much at the same time. Laugh as loudly as you can. Reach for the moon and don’t lose sight of your hope. Because you can do it. You can win. You are a fighter.
Keep your head in the clouds and your heart on your sleeve. You are enough. You are perfectly enough.
