Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it.
You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and
fortune by the age of 21.
Hell, it’s ok if you don’t even know what your dream is yet.
Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it.
Never tell yourself you missed your chance.
Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough.
You can do it. Whatever it is.
