Life is what you make it. No one is going to hand you anything. Determine your dreams and get rid of all the negative and distracting influences in your life. If it doesn't nurture you, cut it out. Create things and stop consuming this culture. Don't do something just because everyone else is. Don't hate someone for hating you. Release yourself from the tethers of attachment, it is the root of all suffering. Find a focus. Focus on that thing until you are good at it. Confidence comes from mastery.
