Need some help if i should keep my dream of becoming famous?
well, am in my teen years and i always wanted to be famous since i was little, i think i still do. I don't think i sing to well so no singing, people said modeling is a bad experience, i was interested in acting until i heard its a 1 in a million chance of making it in a movie...(i am not experienced in acting but i like doing it) i am not athletic...AT ALL, but i am good at drawing and i love to do it but i dont know any modern famous artists....the famous ones are all dead! i also like to write books but what are the odds that they are going to publish my book. i dont know anything else i could be famous for; the only reason that i want to be famous is because my father works everyday, all day and night for this computer company and i hate to see him all stressed and he always wants to quit, i want to give him a break. and i had this one dream where god came to me and said, "you have to live, you have to live!" i awoke, scared in the middle of the night and realized that i only have one life and i have to start living it before my time is up. i feel like i do the same thing ever day and i just want to get away from everything; am not so close to my friends anymore...my bff got kind of snooty, school puts too much stress on me,and i dont feel as happy as i used to. and if i ever got a lot of money i would do something good with it,3 reasons: i love to help people and put smiles on their faces, its good for your soul, and not for people to say, " wow thats so nice!" no... not for publicity, i really do love to do that kind of stuff; my family already donates are things to the am-vets and i donate to other things also. is their something i could be known for, for helping out like that, i want to make everyone like that and spread the word, because its something i enjoy. please help, thanks!

You can keep your dream of becoming famous but sooner or later you'll have to face reality.

Your question is a little all over the place, so if I miss a part of your question, I apologize. I'm 30 years old, and let me tell those crappy feelings you're having are normal. Life isn't a box of chocolates - it's a box of "Every-flavor Beans", and you never know which flavor you're gonna get.

But, you can increase your chances of getting the yummy flavors by doing what you're doing right now. You're trying to make something of yourself at a young age, and that will really help you life (and your dad's life) be better in the future. Okay, now on to your question...

You could try being a professional party/event clown. With YouTube and some good networking, you could probably become pretty famous doing that. With enough popularity, you might be able to command very high rates.

How about public speaking? People make over $100,000/year doing that. It takes a while to get started, but you'll be teaching people, helping them better themselves, and you can become famous. It requires a lot of travel, though.

Since you're so young, you could get a part-time job to help you dad with the bills, and in your spare time, put your face all over the internet. I mean, you could become a worldwide advocate for helping people or whatever you want. Start a Youtube channel, a blog (or a video blog), get on all the major social networks (twitter, facebook, etc), join online and offline clubs to network with people who enjoy the kind of thing you're all about, and maybe they'll like your youtube vids or blog and they'll tell their friends. When you get enough popularity, you can sell advertising on your website, get your videos sponsored, get paid for public appearances or speaking engagements, and so on.

You could do a pod cast, instead of youtube, with the stuff I mentioned in the previous paragraph.

By the way, public speeches can be done online now. You could live-stream the speeches from your home computer with any website that lets you do that. If you're good enough, you might be able to charge people for attending. I know a lady who charges $600 for one week of online classes, and each class is only 2 hours long. I'm not saying you have to teach, but I'm just letting you know it's a possibility.

With the internet, especially, there are so many ways to leverage your talents and hobbies and interests. After you gather answers here, snoop around on the internet, and I bet you'll find TONS of ways to make money doing the things you mentioned. You might even get rich or famous along the way.
