I spent way too many years of my life feeling alone. No one understood me. No one cared enough about me. I was the only one that felt the way I did. Well, guess what? I was wrong.

My first problem was I had the wrong people around me. Not everyone wants you to succeed. Clearing out the wrong folks lifted the fog that surrounded me and allowed me to see things more clearly.

My second problem was pride. When I finally stopped acting like I knew it all and started opening up about fear, inadequacies, and questions about life, people started sharing their stories too.

It’s like in class when the teacher tells the students to ask questions, because there’s probably someone out there with the same question. It’s true! You aren’t alone.
