How to get my life together?

[placenamehere]

you know what
the first step is to be completely determined. so determined that your unstoppable
I'm not 23 1'm only 15 I probably have no idea what you are going through
but all my life I have been called, stupid and ugly and told that I couldn't do anything, sometimes even by own family.
I took up karate,
you don't need to take up a sport necessarily but this is how I changed my life
in elementary and middle school I was called and ugly and I was perceived as stupid
I took up karate in 6th grade, at the time I thought nothing of it.
one day someone said something and something snapped inside of me, after all those years of being tortured I was going to prove everyone wrong, I thought.
once I got to 7th grade everything was going great.
then I started to fail school and gained a lot of weight.
one day I was so ready to kill myself that I almost did
but I knew that I couldn't because that would be selfish and everyone around me would be different.
than something inside me changed.
I now took up boxing. I am one of the best fighters my teacher has ever seen, I am a straight A student, and have lost weight and all those bad decisions I made is what drives me to do my best even today.So what I am trying to say is you have to do your best. You can't say I'll find a career tomorrow. You say I will start now. Make good decisions now before they scar you for the rest of your life.
