Answer 1

Don't allow yourself to be bagged down with maybes and perhapses. Just GO for it! You've got nothing to lose. Find a goal and take the steps needed to achieve it.

Give everything your all and be confident. KNOW that you are capable of doing ANYTHING you put your mind to.

Put your past behind you, stick to your aspirations and you WILL get there :).

Answer 2

Let's start at the beginning and work our way up. First, go back to school and get your GED and then enroll in community college. You can take classes in writing (you like poetry) and music and see what happens. You can get a job making some money to pay for the schooling, also be sure to check with the admission office to see what money you can get (you may qualify for assistance). Don't be angry, just get your little butt in gear and start to change your life. You are really young and have a lot of time to make things right. Forget the big ideas of being an actress, focus on realistic ideas first that will give you some stability and foundation. Don't worry about 'success' be concerned with doing what you were put here to do. What did you tell people you wanted to do when you were a little girl? Sometimes as children, we know what we really want, sometimes we get a glimmer. Can't you go back to your parents home and at least have support there while you are trying to get your life together? Ask God for help, strike up a relationship with Him and He will guide you. I wish you the best.

Answer 3

If you keep telling yourself you "can't," then you probably won't. You have to get a positive attitude and believe in yourself. Place your faith in God like everything depends on Him, but work like everything depends on you. That's old fashion advice, but it's true. If there are obstacles holding you back, make a plan to overcome each obstacle. Start with the easy-to-fix things that are blocking your way. You must have money somehow to get an ID. They're not that expensive. Borrow some money from a friend for the ID, get a job (it may not be what you want, but you have to sacrifice sometimes to get to where you want to go), and pay them back with your first paycheck. Once you have all the minor things taken care of, you can analyze your situation again. Then set realistic and specific goals for yourself. It's all about your mindset and willingness to take calculated risks. You can do anything you put your mind to. Just remember, success takes dedication, effort, and a strong spirit. You won't find success over night. You have to have patience and perseverance for when times are rough. Good luck to you. Things will work out if you have faith!

Answer 4

Go placidly amid the noise
And the haste and remember
What peace there may be in silence?

As far as possible without surrender
Be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly,
And listen to others,
Even the dull and ignorant,
They too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
They are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself to others
You may become vain or bitter,
For always there will be greater
And lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as
Your plans, Keep interested in
Your career however humble;
It is a real possession in the
Changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
For the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you
To what virtue there is;
Many persons strive for high ideals,
And everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself, especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
For in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
It is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years gracefully
Surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture the strength of spirit to shield you
In sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself
With imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue
And loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline,
Be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the
Trees and the stars: You have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt
The universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you
Conceive him to be; and whatever your labours
And aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life,
Keep peace with your soul.
With all its shams, drudgery and
Broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Answer 5

Cannot beat the answer that pinoyscrewer gave you.

However, do keep in touch with positivism. Share your love like Christ did. Not material love but compassionate love. Love is very important to the growth of our soul. Remember to respect yourself first, then you can apply to others. And remember to be humble. That's a start.

PS: Keep in mind; the homeless, the poor, the hungry. In helping them, you'll be helping God and in doing so, you'll be helping yourself. Now, GO!

Answer 6

first of all get back in school, then consider college, or some type of career school, you can persue your poetry,and singing as a hobby that may earn you some money, stay away from drugs and stay away from criminal behavior, along the way in school people will be able to guide you in your career choices.

Answer 7

Go out with some few good friends you've got. Communications after communication will land you to decide for yourself out of socializing!

Sharing what you have, as you have pointed out, will be guided accordingly if you listen to what others need and use.
