how can i believe in myself when no one else does?

How can anyone else believe in you if you do not believe in yourself?

Don't listen to such pessimists - stick to your guns and work hard at what you really want to do. Play in bars and hotels etc (that is how the Beatles started). When there is a will there is a way.

Less whining on R&S, more actual guitar playing.

[Since You Asked]

yup, but after you turn 28 you can apply under the adult status and they have to let you into college, you need to do a bit more research, and besides, you can upgrade a highschool degree pretty easily, GED, that sort

Maybe everyone else knows something about
you that you don't.

[apeman605]

You know yourself better than others do.

[Hannah]

no one will belive in you if you dont believe in yourself
try doing small tasks to build up your self confidence

Michael Dell, the founder and CEO of Dell, Inc., dropped out of college at 19. He first started his computer company in his college dorm room, later using company’s earnings and family loans to expand. In 2008, Forbes ranked Michael Dell #11 in its 400 Richest Americans. As of 2009, he has an estimated net worth of $12.3 billion.

Henry Ford never graduated high school, but went on to start one of the largest automobile manufacturing companies in the world, Ford Motor Company. He’s also credited as being the first auto manufacturer to use an assembly line, completely revolutionizing the way cars were produced. The assembly line allowed Ford sell cars at a lower price but the company kept making higher profit because sales volumes continually increased. Time called Ford one of the most influential people of the 20th century.

John D. Rockefeller Sr., a high school dropout, became the first American billionaire and is said to be the richest man in history. He founded Standard Oil, the first multinational corporation, in 1870. The Supreme Court broke up the company in 1911 stating the company had violated anti-trust law creating a monopoly.

Mark Zuckerberg, founder of the social networking site Facebook #785 in the World’s Billionaires ranks #321 on Forbes’ list of 400 richest Americans. Born in 1984, Mark had an estimated net worth of $1.5 billion in 2008 and is the youngest person ever to appear on one of Forbes’ billionaire lists. He developed Facebook one year on summer vacation after borrowing money from Paypal’s co-founder Peter Theil. In 2008, Microsoft paid $240 million for 1.6% share of Facebook, leading us to believe the site is worth $15 billion.

Just some examples. You can do anything you put your mind to, you just have to keep on trucking along. There will always be people out there looking to drag you down, just make sure to have on arm floaties so you can stay afloat. =)

Well you could always try getting a GED, and you could always try going to votech and learning a trade. Dreams are good, but you need to get your feet under you before you start worrying about pursuing other interests...
