There are always going to be people who try to tell you what you can't do. SCREW THEM.
You don't need validation from anyone except your inner self. Unfortunately, I find my worst critic comes from within. There's always that negative voice beating me down, saying, "What makes you think you're good enough?" Just plow through it! Just say, "FUCK YOU, VOICE!"
And then laugh. Smile. Pat yourself on the back for all the hard work you've done. Acknowledge all your accomplishments.
A friend once told me, "Follow the yes's." Wrong! Do you really think Albert Einstein tried one experiment, and because it failed, he gave up? Of course not! Be stubborn. Find your inner bitch, and fight back.
You came to this earth for a purpose. Find what that purpose was. Write a realistic goal on paper. Then fold it up, and THROW IT AWAY. Then take another piece of paper and write your wildest dreams down. Now take that paper and hang it up on your bathroom mirror. Focus your energy on what you want.
I'm certainly not saying to be irresponsible. There are things like bills and family that you need to take care of. Just don't be afraid to take calculated risks. Get outside of that comfort zone, and push forward.
When you fall, look at the ground beneath you. Look at the grass, the dirt, the insects and let it sink in that millions of people have fallen in exactly the same way as you have. Take comfort that you're not alone.

When I was little, my mom said, "You've already won the biggest race of your life." I asked what that was and she replied, "You were born. You beat all the other sperm!"
Keep fighting! Get out there and be the most awesome sperm you can be!
