Everybody's opinion is biased.

It's true!
Your friends and loved ones look better to you than for other people. Those people you loathe look much uglier, as you are more likely to overvalue their deffects.

I suppose. I guess with loved ones it feels like...they're supposed to tell you stuff.
So is it genuine or is it forced?
Like the people who think they're good singers because loved ones tell them they are.
But they're not. They sound horrible.
They think they can sing because they're told they can.

There are two different things there.

I think it's normal you think your loved ones are better than they actually are. But that's how you honestly see them.

But it's not so good that you tell them they are better, even if you don't believe it, just because you think that's the proper way to support them.
It may be done with good intentions, but it's wrong anyway. And may backfire!

My dad always told me when it came to a career that I should go for what I really want and he believed I could do that but he told me to always have a backup plan just in case.
I thank him for being realistic.

@Moi:
That's a good advice indeed.

I always recommend my students to make an extra effort towards the career they like, cause being able to work in something that you really enjoy makes your life so much nicer.
Hard work in something you love is much better than less work in something you loathe.


@Jessi:
Specially for the caravan, now we need as many places to chat in as possible xD

It's good advice. I know I wish I could sell my art 8,u
My dad also told me to go for a job that's always hiring.
Like the medical field - people always need medical assistance so there's always a chance of finding a job.
He also told me that if I ever get a bunch of money, consider buying property and letting people rent it.
He said it's a good way to keep money coming in over time.
I would just hope the people renting weren't filthy pigs who destroy my property Bu

Another thing my dad taught me that has helped me is when I'd get hurt as a child.
He'd tell me "You're okay! Get up!"
So from a young age, eventhough I was clumsy and accident-prone - I'd just get back up.
I stopped crying when I got hurt at a young age too because...I was okay xD
I remember when I was in first or second grade, we were running to the playground and this girl fell and scraped her knee.
Everyone else kept running but I stopped.
I walked over to her and she was crying because she was hurt.
I remember thinking "Why is she crying it's just a scrape .__."
I helped her up and helped her back to the classroom.
