Don’t change who you are for someone else. Don’t try to convince yourself that you are who someone else wants you to be, because you will only try to beat the unbeatable enemy; yourself. Even if someone likes you for this personality you choose to portray, which is not your genuine one, they will only lie to themselves. They don’t like the actual you, but the made-up you, made by you.
Notice how I’ve used the word ‘you’ multiple times? That is because your life revolves around you. No, not everything revolves around you, but your own life does. This sounds obvious, but trust me, many people do not realize this.
You live for you and not for others. Others are there to help you and make your life better. Yes, you are there for others making their life better too. But you are there. Not your made-up personality. You.
Everything that happens in your life happens for you, not for someone else. In other words, you are not the side character in someone’s story, but the main character in your own story.
You may be the side character in someone else’s story, but that doesn’t matter. There is a story where you are the main character and that is your story, and that’s what you should focus on.
So, make the story yours. Write it. Make the cameras turn towards you. Everyone is the main character in their story. Don’t care about other people’s story. Write your own and let them do the same for them.
Now, remember, I am not saying that the world revolves around you, because it does not. But your story does. Your story, your fate revolves around you. Your fate isn’t sealed. You build your fate day by day; you write your story day by day.
If you believe that your fate is sealed and written, then you need to change that mindset and start thinking that you are the god of your life. You control your life. No one else. You.
Choose your path wisely and open the doors that feel right. There is not a correct path and a wrong path. There is a preferred path and an unpreferred path. A satisfactory one and an inadequate one.
Chase your goals and dreams. Don’t give them space to run away; work hard and you will trap them, eventually catching them, achieving them.
Even if a door is locked, find the key and open it. Grab the opportunities from the neck and use them. Find the keys for your desired doors and follow your desired path.
You can do a lot more than you can imagine. Your brain cannot possibly comprehend the power of true human perseverance and dedication until you actually use that power and realize how strong you are.
Allow stories to be written. Stories of yours, stories of others, it doesn’t matter. Let them be written. It will all feel like history in the future. Stories do not need to be in books to be history. There will be someone to remember your stories too.
Life is yours to handle. Achievements, mistakes, unique moments, failures, challenges, those are all memories and pages in your story.

You are unique, just like the history you will leave behind. Every choice you have ever made has led you to this moment. Every choice you make matters. People come and go; your own mind is what always stays. Spend time with your mind and grow into who you truly want to be.
You will face many challenges and dilemmas throughout your entire life and how you handle them will shape you.
People tend to want to write history and have people remember them in the future. But, if you handle things right if you handle life right, there will always be someone to remember you. Your family, your friends, people you have met, maybe even a random person you helped.
You may have greatly impacted someone’s life without even realizing it. That penny you gave to that one homeless person, could have been the last penny they needed to take the bus and go back to their family and live happily ever after. Just an example.
You are the majesty of your life. You are the god of your life. Your life is yours and only yours. Do whatever you want with it. You can achieve unimaginable things, just take it slow, step by step.
You are an inspiration and a unique person; you just don’t know it yet. Your potential is fascinating. Write your story. Show everyone who you can be. Show everyone who you are. Show yourself who you are.
