There were days when I didn't want to do anything.

I thought that I’m not necessary and


that I’m rather a nuisance. But I never thought that all those fears would help me too
much to achieve my goals and discover my talents. I'm too shy for almost everything. I
find it difficult to start conversations with new people in my environment. Many times,
people stop talking to me, even if I want to continue talking to them, for the same reason
that I speak very little at first. All this is also related to the fact that there are times when I
feel that I am capable of doing anything and feeling proud of myself, and other times I feel
that if I do the least, I would make a fatal mistake. I feel REALLY ashamed because I don't
like to make mistakes. It can be said that I am a perfectionist. And if something goes
wrong, I torment myself for it to the point that I end up distancing myself from everyone. I
feel defeated and everyone around me it’s judging me, even if they don’t even care. But
that last feeling was what make me realize I’m not in misery and I have the potential to do
a lot of things. I decided to confront “myself” and leave behind my fears. I wouldn’t give
up this time. I knew it was laborious work, but I said “Whatever. All or nothing”. Music
helped me so much in that time and it was a very difficult way, but little by little I got more
confidence in myself. In my opinion and from my experience, you can do whatever you
want. You have to demonstrate to yourself your capacities. And never give up. “By failing
to prepare you are preparing to fail”
