You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect looking backward. So you have to trust in something: your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. Your time is limited, so don´t waste living someone else´s life. Don´t let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.
