There are no phrases like that like:? Leave it at that? Or?You can’t do that??. These claims lie deep within each person’s identity, becoming frustrated dreams and gradually becoming a dark and terrifying inner voice (similar to that of Darth Vader’s character) that continually tells us that we can’t do or achieve what we want.
From these situations, we met hundreds of people on the street, unhappy, working on what they don’t want, because they were told that fulfilling their dreams or doing what they wanted was not possible, it was not indicated, that it is better to do what society or your parents dictate to you.

“Dreaming like you’re going to live forever, live like you’re going to die tomorrow,” this phrase by American actor James Dean sums up how important it is to dream and fight for your dreams, without being influenced by the opinions of others. Life is yours and it’s in your hands, live it!
