You can be the whole package and still end up at the wrong address. When this happens, the receiver will mishandle you because 1, they don't know what to do with you and 2, they weren't meant to have you in the first place.

And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. whatever somehow you must know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary, only dead fish go with the flow, A nice reminder to swim your own path in life and be true to yourself.
"BETTER TO JUMP AND MAKE A MISTAKE THAN TO SIT THERE TOO FRIGHTENED TO MAKE A MOVE"
“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.” - Benjamin Button
“If your goal is to never make a mistake in your life, you shouldn’t look for secrets. The prospect of being lonely but right—dedicating your life to something that no one else believes in—is already hard. The prospect of being lonely and wrong can be unbearable.” - Peter Thiel, Zero to One
“You are not what you look like. You're the music you listen to, the shows you watch, the art you make, the flowers in your hair, and your favorite blanket. You're not the pimple on your nose or the pudge on your tummy. You're not your thighs or your teeth. You are the color of your hair. You're the mismatched socks you wear and your favorite sweater. You're not what you look like or the body you are in. You are what you love." - Unknown, Real Life
“The better ambitions have to do with the development of character & ability, rather than status & power. Status you can lose.You carry character with you wherever you go, & it allows you to prevail against adversity.” - Jordan B. Peterson

F-E-A-R : HAS TWO MEANINGS: Forget Everything And Run or Face Everything And Rise. THE CHOICE IS YOURS. There is nothing to be afraid of other than FEAR itself
When exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime, you are being ruled by criminals.
When we become fearful, we become vulnerable to anyone who promises to make things better, don't trust it.
The best thing you can do is to just try. Even if you're scared Even if you don't know what the hell you're doing. Something good will always come from trying.

“You can't skip chapters, that's not how life works. You have to read every line, meet every character. You won't enjoy all of it, Hell, some chapters will make you cry for wecks. You will read things you don't want to read, you will have moments when you don't want the pages to end. But you have to keep going. Stories keep the world revolving. Live yours, don't miss out." - PILLOW THOUGHTS II
“If you're confident in your assumptions about how things work, and everything goes according to plan, then you don't learn anything new. But if plans go awry, it forces you to reexamine your assumptions; in ef-fect, you've tested your assumptions and found them wanting. In other words, you've conducted an experiment that's failed to validate your original hypothesis. When that happens, you've gained a valuable new insight.” - Unknown

“When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that last blow that did it—but all that had gone before.”
"you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever."
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent."
