I am used to winning. I am used to getting what I want through hard work and determination.
However, my life is a failure.
I’m pretty sure that I will never work my dream job. My grades from 4 years ago are so shitty that I will never be able to get over them.
Every friend I have every made has moved on with thier life.
i still live with my parents.
There is no happiness in my life. All i want to do is be able to work hard so that I can achieve my dreams. But it seems like that is impossible now.
Should I end it. Or should i push on everyday. Be dissapointed everyday. CArry around this crushing weight of never living up to my own personal goals. Everyday becoming farther away from the person you want to be. Every relationship you make subtly poisoning it with your own sense of failure no matter how hard you try to hide it.
If I end it now, everything will be in the past.

I think you should hang on. You want better, therefore you can be better. You might have to work a little harder than the rest, but you will get there eventually and that’s all that matters.
what if i fail again?
when do i let go?
Silversurfer,
You do not need to compare others achievement s to yours. Life is more about enjoying the journey than attaining the goal. Happiness is not dependent on circumstance but attitude. I am not implying to hell with goals and easy street. I an just trying to address the part of life where most is learned in the shortest time frame. That is usually when it isn’t going the way we had planned. Proving to one’s self, what does not work. Also, i will let you in on a small secret about grades, ask all elders what there grades were. Most can’t remember and most the others lie. I have worked for many owners of successful companies that never finished high school. Don’t buy the lie that you can’t make a good life for yourself.
