i was kinda knocked down when i heard that
my cousins got real taller and beautiful.
and especially that one of them seemed to be
very artistic that she could become designer,
and another very smart like real genius.
and my own brother so good in people relationships..
yet, me...damn, i don't know what good i've got.
yeah, i can draw a bit well, not that bad in language,
so so in instrument, sing well( yet, my voice is going
worse these days!!!:( + my parents wouldn't want to
see me as singer or sth. me neither a bit...
whenever i hear some things from my old people,
it just stress me a lot. yeah, i blew up a real good chance.
and i am trying to make up for it. though it isn't going well...
kinda depressed sometimes whenever they scold or sth.
i am usually very positive and having a lot hopes for future.
yet, when they do that.....i get so sick of my life sometimes.
don't know what to do with my life....encourage me!!! plz

You mention your cousins and say that they have potential to become a designer, etc. They haven't gotten there yet, but you are seeing that possibility for them. Now treat yourself the same way. You have potential too. Sometimes it's hard to know what you want, but think about what you love to do. Pursue that with a passion and you will be a success.

The best advice I can give you is to not be jealous of anyone elses life and just take care of your own,friends and family included. You are an individual with your own set of talents and intelligence---make use of what YOU have. I don't see an age listed but that doesn't mean that you can't be told that you can do anything you want. If you are still in school, do the best you can--learn to read and write well, use proper grammatics and learn enough math to not get taken advantage of in your life. These are great basics and will ALWAYS be of value to you. Learn to stand tall, dress nice and be proud of who you are--that is self confidence and a part of maturity--it looks real good when you go to get a job. Talk with respect and dignity, act with integrity--always do the right thing. To have friends--you have to be a friend--no gossip, no jealousy, no dirty tricks. If you can't use a talent such as art or dance--understand that very FEW ever make it but you can try. As long as you try to do your best, no one can ever expect anything more of you.What ever job you take, do the best you can--8 hours pay for 8 hours work. Be cheerful and agreeable, be a good sport, you just cant miss doing these simple things---and no one likes a whiner or a cry baby---no one owes you anything--earn what you get and take care of what you have. Any job will give you the money to pay your bills and live--you will be just like the billions of other people on earth---good luck

Hi, do not feel discourage that ur cousins are all doing well and not u. Everyone has a talent. Maybe urs is hidden and ur love ones actually knows it. All parents want their children to be the best n therefore there is no reason to be upset when u think u cldnt live up to their expectation. As long as u are kind to ppl, filial to ur parents and old ones, friendly to ur friends, u will be a much greater person than any genius on earth.
Looks arent everything, Self confidence is. One day, u will soar as high as ur cousins or even better. Positive attitude is the solution to ur qns. Best Wishes. =)

Ok. Don't compare yourself to your family. Truthfully if you spend your life trying to impress your family you may not get to become what you want to be. If I were you I'd sit down and write everything I do well, everything I enjoy, and everything I not good at. Then I'd search the web for something that contains some of those good things. The choice is yours and don't ever let your self confidence wither away when it comes to your family. It's the things that you excel in that are probably going to make you happy, so enjoy the gifts God has given you.

Don't worry about what others are doing with their lives, focus on yours. Find out what really drives you, make a list on how to obtain that goal and go for it. Don't let feelings of inadequacy drive you, you will only get more disappointed. And, even if you aren't as clever, talented, whatever, not only is there always someone better anyway, but, it also doesn't mean that you can't live a full and happy life.

Usually when people are putting you down, it's because they are jealous of you.
Hold your head up high and love who you are. You can't let anyone else try to tell you what to be. Once you make your decision of the direction you want to take --- go for it. You will feel better about yourself once you realize that it doesn't matter what others SAY about you, it matters how you feel about yourself. You need to encourage yourself & not secondguess yourself. You seem to have a lot of different talents...be proud of them. Try out different things....you'll find your way.

Don't worry about it kid..... you've got a whole world of things to choose from. We can't all be rocket scientists or movie stars. But we can all be the best we can be at something.
First thing you need to do is write down on a piece of paper all of the things you like and/or are good at. Make a list of them. Then pick the three you like the best from your list and set yourself a goal to achieve one or ALL of them.
Good luck.....the world is yours.

do what you want to do.
it doesnt matter how much money you make or how good you look when your unhappy.
my advice is start doing all types of things,taking different classes and maybe then you'll find your niche.
and stop worrying about everybody else,they are not you. it really doesnt matter what your parents want you to do in terms of a career. love singing? sing
