My whole life I've been told and thought I'm stupid. Because I'm not school-book smart. I don't get good grades in the "smart subjects" like science, math and so on. I am so sick of believing this. I'm a different type of smart. I know I can make something of myself.
I am especially good at 3 things; public speaking & reaching out to people, languages (I know 4 different languages and intend on learning several more) and I sympathize, more than anything. People always turn to me because of that, I long to help. More than anything.
I've researched at least a hundred different professions in my attempt to find a major that will equip me with the right tools to help save the innocent from the corrupt and ultimatley change the world. I need a profession that will make me come alive. I have a picture of myself speaking infront of thousands of people, touching their hearts, or working at a homless shelter, somehow helping those who have been used, or anything of that kind. But in BIG levels, it wouldn't mean anything to me as a doctor or anything like that. It's not the kind of thing that would make me come alive, it wouldn't matter to me. I don't want to help one person at a time, I want to help thousands.. at once. I want to do something that would end homelessness and stimulate world peace!
I am compassionate and am able to provide stability in people's lives when they are shaken up. I am 16 years old, female, and more than anything.. I want to do something with my life.
No one believes in me, because I am not suited for the typical "good jobs" I will never have the grades to become a Lawyer, Doctor, Journalist or any of the sort.
Help me, what can I become? And how do I get there?
Thank you so much! And please, don't read this and think "what a dreamer, everyone thinks they'll save the world.. this one doesn't even have good enough grades.. she doesn't even know how to spell" Please, I have enough people thinking that way, if you can't help me, fine. But I'm begging you, don't think like that.
Let me start off saying I am in awe that you feel this way.
Forget the people who say no one can change the world by themselfs. Martin Luther King JR. changed the world by his powerful speeches and his power of will. You, sweetheart, can be that, as long as you forget the people that say you can't, and remember the people who say you WILL. This is not a matter of maybe, or even probably. This is a matter of you will accomplish great things.
I only can hope for people that think the way you do. If we had people that thought like this, my, we would be in a world without international problems. People need the help from others that can think of great ideas. Book smart people don't impact the world as greatly as people like you.
Now, on to the advice, eh? Well, start off in working in homless shelters. Organize a speech in your school. I bet, right now, if this got recognised, and got past on to news stations, you would have already touched so many hearts.
You already HAVE touched so many hearts.
Just count this as one.
:]
Hope I Helped!!
p.s. Thank you.
