      This video has really messed with me lol I am a black girl named Jade who lives in Virginia and I’m currently contemplating what to do next do I want to continue to clock in and clock out in the hopes that’s I’ll make 6 figures and be happy or start trying to make my own path this video pop up at such an insanely perfect time. I asked for a sign and a literally got a video from alternate universe me with one of my favorite people telling me to take the leap
      (Sidenote I’m posting this everywhere because I think it’s a insane coincidence that this has happened like I literally had the same hair cut as her last year and very rarely do I meet other brown Jades)

I have to keep reminding myself it will NEVER BE JUST EASY. I WILL STRUGGLE AND WHO EVER MAY HAVE A DREAM THAT SEEMS JUST IMPOSSIBLE, MAKE THAT DAMN DREAM A REALITY AND ACCEPT BEING UNCOMFORTABLE!!! I will be what I want to be and whoever may be reading this, you will too:)) good luck!!!!🍀

    I’m 21 trying to become a professional dancer one day and I’m looking to move to New York. This conversation was sooo needed and I love jade. At least once a year since I’ve turned 18 I’ve contemplated giving up but I’ve kept going bc it’s one of the only things that makes me happy and makes me feel like me. Following your dreams is hard asf. imma watch this whenever I got that feeling bc this has so much great advice and jades mindset is so useful to have when your confidence has been shaken and you wanna cry in a ball somewhere

    @LoverofHistory 5 років тому +34

    I think the need to be good at things is a human thing, but I think it's gotten worse because of how often we see stories like "six year old paints photo-realistic portraits and makes millions." When all we see celebrated are prodigies, it feels like if you're not good at something immediately than there's no point. I think we also tend to see more recognition for some talents than others, even though everyone has talent in something. I'm trying to learn to be ok with not being great at things and to do them anyway, especially with things I enjoy. If you like singing, who cares if you're good or not? Just do it. Just sing because it makes you happy!

    Wow, this video answered all of the questions I had been asking myself for the past week. I'm pretty good at motivating myself but sometimes I just need to hear other people talk about it. I'm at home visiting my mom trying to get some peace from feeling the need to create, create, create. I'm at that stage where there's no going back like it would be an incredible inconvenience. Jade and Jo, you two represent so much, so thank you for creating this video and spreading the love. Just the push I needed ❤️✨

    ooh girl. When Jade mentioned the lack of support from family and friends, that was a word. I have a youtube channel and I can't get my friends to watch my videos. Even though they say the topics are interesting and they wanna see the content, they won't click. I have TWO friends and TWO relatives that click like and comment regularly. Of my huge as family and my wide social circle, that is like 4 people. PATHETIC! But it took time to recognize that I don't make videos for them. And i'm going to continue to do what i do. Whats mine is mine and it will come to me!
