my friends say my dream is not possible do you?

I have a dream of being a singer or song writer when i grow up, i dont care about the money or the fame. Just the feeling of pride and happiness when i sing or play something on the flute. All my friends say i have a talent in singing and song writing but they all say it's not possible for me to have it as work and this really hurts, because ive been dreaming of being a singer or songwriter since i was 6, so it's immaginable when not a single friend thinks you can do it. They all say im to weak for it and i wont be able to handle the emotional side but i think their wrong. What do you think????

    You have the right attitude and that's the way to go, but if you do it for love then money is only a bonus. The best way to not get down about it if you do find it hard to get paid work is to get another job that allows you the time and flexibility to make it. I do that, I have a day job and I do photography on the side, I love it and often want to do jobs for free because it means more to have the experience of something you love, it's a hard road and you've got to take criticism but you just keep ploughing on. I think you will find that some of these people you are talking about when you are older will not be around to see so don't you worry about them. If you say you can't do it or believe other people then you won't because it means you won't try. Stick with your dreams because when you get to your 40s and life isn't so full of opportunities then those people will still be afraid and boring but you will be able to say "I lived my life doing the things I wanted to do".

    Remember people who have no talents and aren't gifted with music and the arts are lacking, they can't learn that like we can learn maths and english. People will envy your talent.

    GO FOR IT!

    they're not your friends if they think you can't do it. Follow your own heart and do what it tells you to do. Many can start with a small idea or dream and turn it into something that can change or inspire others. Go for it. Stay strong and overcome what everyone tells you. In the end people will tell you how wrong they were to doubt you.

    1. I think they're just jealous. Perhaps not intentionally but they probably are.

    2. You should go and read about Taylor Swift's life. Her friends couldn't relate so they said and did things to make her feel bad about what she loved doing.

    3. I believe if it's your gift/talent and you enjoy doing it...IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE for you!!!

    Good Luck and Best Wishes!

    You can do it! As long as you're good at what you do, someone will pay you for it

    Don't be discouraged. If you somehow fail to make it, you have youe whole life to settle down with a boring desk job

    Hey, all singers and actresses dreamed of being what they are now when they were younger, so why can't you?

    You have to start somewhere!

    Don't listen to your friends, if they aren't gonna be encouraging then stuff them, just listen to your heart. =]

    I Believe in you!

    i think if you have a dream pursue it no matter what and if your frnds are demotivating u like ths thy are'nt really frnds...

    ohh nd no one says the road will be easy but if you determined you can do anything but make sure you do somethng alongside your singing so if you dont make it tht big in music you have a backup...

    You can do anything you put your mind to!

    Sure there will be people that try and stand in your way, your success will be determined by your ability to accept criticism and use it to develop yourself further.

    Best of luck
