Hi, I’m 17 too and I’ve got a very unsupportive family as well, they have been abusive throughout my childhood. Its your life at the end of the day so don’t let anyone take away your opportunity. If people oppose you, you can still find ways to achieve what you want.

Hi Guy! Sorry my reply is late. My question on meditation is that there is this thing called the ‘third eye’ located between your eyebrows or something. But where exactly is this third eye and do you need to squint closing your eyes to see it?

I am actually 17 year old Indian girl myself. I personally prefer a more conservative field like doctor, engineer to match my views and lifestyle but that’s just my own story. My advice to you would be to follow your heart but don’t lose your head. At the end of the day, its your decision not your parents because its your life. Don’t let anything hold you back. Make sure you know what each career involves and compare it with your own lifestyle and beliefs and ask yourself, ” Is this right for me?” if the answer is yes then great! You are capable of succeeding in any job, in any field in life. But not if you don’t enjoy doing it. I think its also important to remember that it is possible to be very well known but not famous for something. Like if you run a successful business then you might be well known and famous but not in a celeb kind of way. Another thing is that while power comes with fame, there is such a thing as fame without power and power without fame.

So follow your dreams and follow your heart but make sure you don’t lose your head. Best of luck in whatever you decide to do.
