One of my favourite things about American culture is that it is okay to fail because you tried. There is a lot of pressure put on trying new things, new career paths, new hobbies. All in favour of the saying, "you miss 100% of the chances you don't take." Motivation is huge part of American culture, to be better than who you were yesterday, to build yourself up, make yourself into something. One of great things about this ideal is that you can always wipe the dust off and get back up. There is no secret to success, no one route, there are many routes, many different ways that you can climb that ladder. None are easy.
The point is keep trying, and if you don't succeed you try again. If you realize it isn't for you, try something else. Life is a game and we keep playing to get an outcome we want.
About
I started this blog prior to my European travels. Originally I made it so I could keep my family and friends updated back home. I had so much fun updating the blog when I was abroad that when I came home I continued uploading.
I now upload experiences on my travels, some tips that I learned along the way. I even post other things, sometimes they are beauty or fashion or interesting things I find on the internet. This blog has transformed itself into something else, it essentially shows who I am as a person.
