I`m 25 years old with a primary school education. You might think - oh, that guy most probably is a looser and can`t earn a living. Yeah, that`s what I though after leaving school and experiencing extreme depression with suicidal thoughts. But things are not built that way. Only what matters is what do you think of yourself. If you think you`re a looser, you`ll be a looser. If you think you`re ugly, weak and can`t be sucessful, yeah, most probably that will happen. The thing we control who we are. Sometimes it takes time and effort to ignore what others think, deal with the presure and what you think of yourself. But in the end you can achieve anything you want. By believing yourself, hard work and determination. With a little help of tallent, being in the right place at the right time you can be millionaire or at least wealthy.
So, primary school education. What can you do with that, what job can you have? A janitor, a seller at a supermarket, street sweeper? Or a beggar? I`m not saying a janitor or a seller is a bad job to have. There are people who enjoy to clean up and look at their work and smile. But the point is - what do you want in your life? Education can`t force you to be stupid, unintelligent or rude. Your success has nothing to do with educations. Imagine how many high school graduates live a ret race lives? Education does not exempt you from working low paid jobs. What really matters is what you want!
And once again - you have primary school education and you`re teaching me to live life? Well, I`m not teaching you to live your life, I`m encouraging you to dream big, never limit yourself, never give up on your dreams and things you want to do, because of that, that and that, that and that. "That`s" never end. You have the power to ignore reasons you can`t do something and find reasons why to do it.
Before 3 years I was without a job, without an education, without a hope to be sucessful. Although I had a huge potential and tallent, I did not know how to use it. And then a opportunity popped up to work as a low paid translator. That`s how it all begun. I noticed my skills and tallent. I started working as a freelance translator, landed more and more jobs, got involved in many projects. Now I`m earning 3 times more than a regular Latvian citizen earns. I don`t feel proud about money, I feel proud I never gave up on myself, I`m proud I`m showing all the smartass high school graduatesm the system and those who gave up on me I have more to offer. But the most important thing - I`ve proven myself I can do anything I want.
I`m a really skinny guy. My average weight is 63 kilograms. When I had to fight for love of my life, I proved myself I can do anything - I trained hard and change my attitude and gained 7 kilograms of muscles. Some would say I`ll never be a good looking guy, but everything is in your head.
I`m not saying I`m perfect, I still have problems I`d like to solve, but I`m taking all the oportunities life has to offer, I`m overcoming my chronic depressions and look on obstacles as just an experience. I hope this blog will be a great way, how to monitor my success, talk out all the problems and encourage you to join my journey! I hope I can help you and you can help me. One of the best things we have is the opportunity to learn. And we can learn from any experience, from each person.
I hope you`ll stick around with me. I have many life experiences I`d like to share.
Have a nice day, be happy and never give on your dreams!
