Why do people stop working towards achieving their dreams?

I was born with plenty of..talent. I loved singing, and dreamed about being a singer, but i was told that I wasn't pretty enough, and did i have a voice! I loved drawing but my mom kept on telling me how useless that is and that artists die in hunger. I loved justice, and wanted to become a judge, but my parents kept on telling me that i am not smart enough. So.. I gave up on doing things i loved and dreamed about. Now, I started dreaming again, now, when there is no influence arround me anymore to suppress who i am, but following my dream now comes at a cost; a cost i can not afford. I didn't give up on this one yet but seems financially impossible.

:financial struggles

Telling others about your dreams. They can then ridiculize you. And you can begin to kind of..back off.

What are your political and economic beliefs? How did you form them, especially in comparison to those who hold opposing views?

:friends/family influence

Hope this helps clear it up a bit. Is my personal experience, it doesn't have to be this.

:not enough support

How should you handle a situation where your friend tells you they like someone who also likes you? Should you tell them or continue as normal?

There's a bunch of reasons that i can think of right now.
