DO WHAT YOU LOVE

I often find myself over thinking about how others feel about me. I used to feel really self conscious and constantly worried about the way I look or the way that I may come across to others. I used to never be the type of girl to stand up for myself in a group of people. I began my YouTube channel during year 8. I always admired older beauty gurus who always seemed very confident and happy. And, I wanted to have a place where I could talk about all the things that I loved and I loved the idea whole idea of making videos. It started off as a hobby however I started to become more confident within each video that I made and I could see myself growing as a person.

Little did I realise that by making videos and becoming a part of YouTube would unlock so many opportunities. It was amazing being able to connect with other people around my age who shared the same interests as me.

At first, I did not want anybody from school to find out about my channel however once one girl found out. Everybody knew. The aim of this blog post was to tell you guys about back when I began my channel. And, to get the message across that it is important in life to do what makes YOU happy.
Some people mocked my channel and kept asking questions on why I made videos. However once people found out they started to find it fascinating that I had the confidence they never thought I had. My best piece of advice would be to ignore the haters and accept the lovers. In life there will be people who don't like you for no reason, but they are the people that you have to ignore.


I have got upset so many times about things that do not really matter. If YOU want to make YouTube videos, sing, dance, write..... Don't let ANYBODY stop you.


There are so many people in life that will come and go. And the people at school that once laughed at you for being yourself, will soon turn round in 30 years time and applaud you for becoming successful and chasing your dream when they did not. Just think that you have the power to change your life at any moment and if that means getting hate from other people first, then that's what your going to have to do.


Chase your dreams, ignore the haters and DO WHAT YOU LOVE.
