It's always me who tell myself that I'll fail. And when I told them that I'll fail, they were just laugh at me and said "if you fail, then all of us who are behind you will fail as well."
I think they just want to support me.

Many many times. It's the best incentive to succeed and prove them wrong. Which I have also done many many times.

My mom many times and she still does.. According to her would fail in the Army, fail as a nurse and fail as a wife and mother. So far she has been wrong about all of it.

So many times I lost count, sometimes though... It was quite obvious I was going to fail... Like when I blindfolded myself and rode my bike in the middle of the woods while my friends "directed" me with their words... Well, I was full of thorns and splinters by the time I realized that it wasn't a good idea.. x'D FAIL MASTA!

My parents did all the time. They said I'd fail at life. And I did. I failed in school, getting a job. But I never let it get to me. I tried my best and I couldn't do it. Now they've disowned me and I'm happier than ever. I don't need a high school diploma and a college degree to be happy. I can be happy by doing the things that make me happy. Riding my motercycle, taking care of my sister, and just living while it lasts.

My High School Chemistry Teacher, he was right. I did manage to pass 12 hours of college chemistry but it was never my favorite subject.

My ex husband. He used that to sontrol me. He would tell me that no one else would ever want me and I was lucky to have him. I wanted to go back to school and he said "Awwww that is so cute you think you can do that"

When I told people at school that I was going to be a professional actor they thought that I was dreaming. Now I am. I'm not famous but I still get paid to act, which is what a professional actor is.

probably, but i don't remember ... when someone says that the best thing to do is just ignore the person saying that ... of course, sometimes situations ARE unwinnable ... learning how to figure out ahead of time which situations are gonna work and which ones aren't gonna work is part of living ...

Mhm. Many people many times. Sometimes it wasn't so much said though, but they still acted in a manner that it was clear they were all but saying I'd fail >.> People suck at times and need to be ignored.
