How does one truly reveal what they want from themselves? You may want to be an actor, perhaps an author? No matter what it is, you’re true to it and are determined to act on it. No matter if you were “born with it”, no matter what people’s opinion of your expertise in it, that doesn’t matter. What matters is acting on it, the only one who is going to help you do so, is yourself. Your beloved friends, family, and supporters can promote and cheer you on in achieving what your heart most desires, but you are the only real reason it can ever be so.
Hardly anyone successful can say it was the result of sheer dumb luck, and counting on luck, will get you nothing. If it hasn’t happened yet, don’t kid yourself. Make it happen, you exist because you want to exist. Any person could commit suicide, but they choose not to. There has to be some reason you’re here, if there wasn’t, you wouldn’t be! The difficult step is discovering what that reason actually is. It’s in all of us, and in you. As you read this, that deep emotion, that powerful ability is glowing deep inside your heart. But how do you find it?
Think about this. What makes you individual from the rest of the world? What relates you to the rest of the world? Depending on what it is you ask of yourself, these can be the key’s to unveiling your true meaning to existence. The great thing about it is, you hold the power to let it be whatever it is you want it to become! Anything! All you have to do is discover your true self. For some it may be easy, for some it can seem impossible. I myself, feel it extremely hard to let it out, and let it be clear to my mind, for that is the problem. In my case, nothing comes to mind. One day soon, I hope to reveal it to myself, before it may be too late to act on it. Time slips away much too fast to one day, when your chance is no longer held dear to you, say “Damn... why didn’t I-“.
No matter how hard you have to search, never give up on yourself. Find what it is you possess, and make it a reality. You have the power; anyone who exists can make anything exist. Now get out there and discover it! Discover, who you truly are.

Hi! I'm Knight Hardy here on a mission to ensure that all works on YWS has at least two reviews. You will probably never see this but....Imma do this anyway.
First Impression: So I'll just say WOW at this point. That's about all I can say to sum up that starting point. It's such a nice and helpful message that you've put out. It maybe over a decade old but it will always be awesome advice. All I can say thank you for writing this. This was wonderful to encounter today.
Anyway let's get right to it,
Okay that sounds like a pretty nice little start to a pep talk like thing there. I really love the message that you are attempting to convey there because it really is so true that no matter what anyone ever tells you at the end of the day you are responsible for what you become.
Oooh this is really sounding like a really cool motivational speech that you have here. There are really wonderful lines here especially that thing about choices and suicide. So far I am loving the concepts that you are bringing out through this piece.
I can attest to the truth of that one from personal experience. Again I am seeing some really nice and pretty relatable advice. I'm loving this piece so far.
Amen to that one. This is a lovely message to put out into the world. At this point all I really have to say is thanks for sharing and I think this one deserves a literary spotlight. Let me see what I can do.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
Overall: Overall I see no grammar or spelling errors at least ones that I can spot. The message is worth its weight in gold and that's about all that I have to say about this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
Harry
means a lot to me, thanks!
Hey =]
Welcome to YWS! I'm Dudette
Wow, this piece made me smile. It's so optimistic - well, the overall concept anyway.
I so have days when I think, 'why am I writing? It's not like anything will come of it,' but then I think to myself, 'how do I know that for sure?'
I couldn't really find any gramatically wrong with it, but then that might be because I was enjoying reading it so much
You've definitely motivated me to write more of my story after reading this and I'm sure it will do the same for others!
Great job!
