What Happens If You Don’t Live Up To Your Expectations?

What's Good Dimah Fam!

Imagine society painting a picture of what success looks like: good job, lots of money, and lots of recognition. Many people feel they have to chase this image, especially if they don't want to disappoint their family and friends. Now, if you're born with certain advantages, like being in a well-off family, it's like getting a head start in a race. But this isn't always as great as it sounds. Why? Because with that head start comes a ton of pressure. Think of it like being given a map with a marked destination. But that destination? It's where your successful relatives or ancestors went, not where you might want to go. Having these privileges can feel less like a gift and more like a heavy backpack. Everyone expects you to do great things because people before you did. And the fear of wasting these advantages or not living up to past successes? It’s real. But here's a thought: maybe true success isn't just following a marked path. Maybe it's about making your own path, even if it’s different from everyone else's. Everyone has their own journey, and it’s okay to find and define your own success. We love you all so much!
