Don’t Kill Yourself Philosophically for the Appeasement of Others

Well you shouldn’t kill yourself at all and hopefully you know this. There is so much life for you to live and there are resources available to you. With regard to philosophical death, don’t limit yourself because you are under the influence of certain individuals. I remember when I went to the library at my school back in middle school, and I picked up a Twilight book. I wasn’t familiar with the series back then but I was sold by the cover and the synopsis. Back then I had a mixed living situation and I lived with my aunt among other family members. I got home so excited that I went to the library and was inspired by the knowledge that was there and that I got this good looking book about vampires. Shortly after my aunt convinced me not to read the book for reasons that couldn’t have been genuine because why would anyone tell a growing kid not to read. Now I read and write on a weekly basis and I’m an award winning author.

I remember in high school having a track team member run up to me and go out of his way to tell me that I will never be a leader. The team didn’t like the way I was leading warm ups that day, and things got a little hectic. This one still stings to this day because in some respects maybe he was right. That said, regardless of his opinion that hasn’t stopped leadership opportunities from coming my way. I’m also a thought leader now, and I run a lifestyle brand.
