Choosing where you want to go in life is a result of a person deciding that one day, they are not necessarily defined for the rest of their lives by who they were in the past, and are instead judged by who they are now and where they may be going in life. We have to continue to march on and make ourselves the best person we can become.

There will be those who will doubt, and who will judge based off of who we were before, and this can only be expected. If you remain adamant and diligent in becoming the person that you want to become, and about achieving the dreams that you want to achieve, everyone will soon understand why you made the life changes you made. One must have a firm faith in following God and everything he puts in our hearts and actually act on the dreams and desires that run to the deepest core of us and also knowing that everything else will fix itself over time.
