Answer 1

You are in 9th grade, for crying out loud! You have your whole life ahead of you. Don't let other people divert or distract you from your dreams. Maybe you want to be a doctor now. Maybe in a year or two years or five years your feeling will change. In any case, make it YOUR CHOICE. Not someone else's choice.

Experience things. Experience life. See things. Do things. Travel places and talk to people everywhere. There is so much to do and see and become in this world; don't let yourself be distracted by people. Don't let people who have a low opinion of themselves negatively influence yourself. Just do what you want and follow your heart.

Answer 2

I'm in 11th grade and I just had a breakdown about failing my classes and life. I went online to find comfort in others and found this sight that stopped my crying right away. This guy said:

How nice would it be if success in life is just measured by how many A's we have in an exam? On the other hand, is it the proper way to measure a person's success in life? We know very well that some people are late bloomers; some are academically inclined and some are not. Are those who are not to be doomed as failures?

Scientists and experiments have proven that humans possess many types of skills and intelligence. Many people with talents in music, sports, fashions have proven to be very successful. But what is being measured in our educational system is usually the ability to write, to add and to remember. Albeit these abilities do give an advantage to a person in achieving his/her goals but inadequacy or a lack of them does not mean that the person is a failure.

My mum can't write and can't really add but to me she is one of the most successful mums in the world. She is humble, she gets along with all kinds of people. She is honest and truthful, she is kind, she is able to console us. She gives us a shoulder to cry on when we are down. She maintains harmony in our family. She is the unifying factor among all my siblings.

On the other hand, my father is intelligent, can calculate, can add, can strategize, can speak etc. But he is arrogant, hot-tempered, can't get along with anybody (he doesn't even have a single friend in the whole town). He creates disharmony in the whole family and is a dis-unifying factor.

The above has taught me that success in life is not measured by what or how much we achieved but by how much we bring out the best in us.

The following wisdom shared by an Indian native will shed more light on what I said:-

"When I was born, the whole world smile and I cried.
We should live our lives in such a manner that when we die,
the whole world cries and we smile."


Coincidently, the best academic result I've ever got in all the public exams was a 'C'.

I'm sorry that this is sooo long and I'm sorry that others don't understand what your going through. I really hoped this helped and that it wasn't stupid.

Answer 3

Stay in school.
Get your Diploma.
While doing that, make a note of things that interest you...over the next years. Talk to people working in those areas....When you graduate, you will have gained a lot of knowledge...and perhaps a clearer idea of what you want to do.

Good Luck

PS: your Mom should not be stealing your Dream. Do not let anyone do that.

Great book to read:

Answer 4

Boo hoo for you. Your just a kid. Wait till you grow up. Then you will have problems. Quit bein so lazy. If you wanna be a doctor then do it. Dont listen to anyone else. Get off your *** and make it happen. Then again, if you dont have enough motivation to pass a simple junior high class, what makes you think you will be able to get through 8 or so years of medical school? Maybe you should re-evaluate your life. Talk to a career counselor. Oh yea, and grow up too.

Answer 5

The bright side is that you're still only in the 9th grade.

Try to find ways to keep focused on the details that are required for you to live your dream. Which regretably means a lot of studying. Good luck.

Answer 6

wow...your really depressing. First of all...9th grade is way to early to be worrying about these stupid things. Calm damn...your not alone. I actrually want to be a doctor...but my sucks as well...and im also really lazy...and what does PHD stand for? i might suggest...doing some research or something on doctors...and maybe it'll boost your ego..

Answer 7

It just sounds like you haven't found what works for you. You never fail until you give up- who cares what other people think of you. Who do you want to be- what do you want to do? Go do it and don't give up until you make it.

Answer 8

get back up on your horses! no matter what life can throw at you, it isn't the end of the road, not yet. we are all unique are own way, study, remember, work harder and work smarter and be tough. no you are not going to fail. you'll make it.

Answer 9
