A series on self-love and positivity that will take place every Sunday. Here I will chronicle how my week went with a question asked on the journal I bought in summer 2017 from Paperchase, and a brief idea of what is planned for the upcoming month in terms of the blog, which will be added/removed when done.
Hope you enjoy this series!
Quote of the week
What are your greatest ambitions? Are you holding yourself back from achieving them?
Let me start by answering the second part of the question. Yes, I think I am definitely the only thing holding myself back from my ambitions of pursuing a career in writing and/or film. I went to University for one year out of the standard three for a basic degree in a course that has Journalism ties to it. It’s what I wanted to do, or so I thought, but due to my severe anxiety and depression, I dropped out.
I may like working in education, as I always say, but it’s what I wanted to do, you know what I mean? I wanted to be a producer, scriptwriter or director. I have a friend who’s a camera person and he tells me it is a super tough job, but if its something you’re passionate about then you’d enjoy it, and that drove me more towards achieving that.
But having a good full-time job and parents who want me to have a “normal” career, like what I have now – which can be my career until I retire – but it’s not something makes me 100% happy… maybe up to 50%. The other 50% is spent here, on my blog, or writing fanfiction (yes, 24 and still writing those even 10 years on!). The latter half is probably my favourite, of course. But I don’t get paid to do it, so I have to step down from it, an that is why I haven’t been posting much in April. It has been the last priority over everything.
