  Dec 24 2012: Hello Greg,
  I am not trying to say you don't know about the world, but I feel like I know more about teenagers that you do, and that is because I am a teenager myself. Nowdays, teenagers as I said are ruining their hopes and dreams under the name of realism. I think that if all teenagers start dreaming big and have faith in their dreams, then the world would dramatically improve.

  Dec 24 2012: Hello George,
  It is true that many famous people did not have happy childhoods back then. On the other hand, to be successful, one should not neccessarily have a bad life. You mentioned being happy but not losing contact with reality. I think it is better to be more optimistic rather than realistic.

  Dec 23 2012: I have to admit and concur to what you said Fritzie. I think there is a difference between thinking about an idea and really implementing through blood,sweat and tears. What I really like to see is showing teenagers some examples and famous people. We have to teach them about reading. I am sure that every teenager can succeed in his/her life by reading 1)The 7 habits of highly effective people and 2)How to think and grow rich by stephan covey and napoleon hill respectively.
  
  It is true that is we tell them they have limitless power they won't buy that;but what if we tell them to try it and see if it works. You mentioned failure. If we teach through the right ways that failing, failing and failing again is all they need to succedd, then they will finally come to understand. Anyhow, this work requires faith and hard work as teenagers will not easily be persuaded. But it is POSSIBLE.

  Dec 23 2012: Hello Jon,
  I am happy that I find people like you who post such precious questions. Regardless of my age ( i am only 17) I am in the middle of a chaos which I am trying to get myself out of. I have big dreams about my desire on energy but my friends keep on mocking and ridiculing me. I think the main motivation to stay ambitious is being told "you can't do this" or "you will never be as successful as they are, just be realistic". All young people today (unfortunately) destroy their desires and goals under the name of being "Realistic". I think being and staying passionate is related to how much confidence, optimism,and faith you have. I have also posted an idea on TED which I will be really thankful if you take a look at.

  Dec 23 2012: Please take this matter seriously and sacrifice a few minutes of your time thinking about it. I am sure if we build a stable and confident youth character, tomorrow's world will be a better and brighter one. We should guide that young onto the right path and help them attain their dreams and goals.

  Dec 23 2012: Pat, thank you for commenting but can you please clarify what you said a bit more? It's not that you are wrong or anything, but maybe it's because I didn't really understand your point there.

  Dec 23 2012: Thank You Fritzie, I would really be thankful if you support my cause on Facebook "youth success and future". We should let all adolescents become aware of the power that lies within them. Through faith,confidence, and optimism, the world can dramatically change.
