if you take anything at all from this video I want you to know ONE thing and
ONE thing only... What's up guys good morning, good afternoon
and maybe even good evening BUT wherever you're at in the world welcome to my
very first ever YouTube video. Let's get one very potent question out of the way:
what is my name? Well my name is Marissa and I'm here because I have a story to
tell you guys and I'm hoping that my story will touch your guys's heart in
the way that it has touched other people's hearts that I've met throughout my life
and touched my heart as well. Let's see, when I first got into school I was 5
years old like everyone else and I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life
I went to wanting to be an astronaut, wanting to be the president wanting to be
a dancer, an actor, a singer everything you could possibly name that a little
kid would want to be that was me right there and there was this piece of me
that thought that when I got into college that eventually I would figure
it out and I would know what I wanted to do with my life and to be completely
honest with you I don't know what I want to do with my life and that's terrifying
and I'm sure a lot of you feel the same way about that but I'm here to tell you
that that's okay and here's the truth of why that's okay. I watch every single day
as people give up on their dreams. I can see it in that person that's sitting
behind the counter working at McDonald's and their eyes are lifeless but they're
sitting there drawing and you can see that that's actually their passion or
when you go out and you just like look at somebody that's working a job and you
can tell that they absolutely hate their life and it breaks my heart to see
people give up on their dreams and I do not want you guys to give up on your
dreams and that's why we're here. I want you to know that that passion that you
feel when you're out there in the world and you completely lose track of time
and you absolutely love what you're doing you're just consumed by it is the
reason that you're here so don't ever let anybody tell you that you can't do
something because it's NOT true. You were put on this earth to follow
your passion and it would be a disgrace to your destiny not to go pursue it and
tell everyone to suck a fat one because you are going to do what you love and I
can promise you that if you put your mind to it. And what absolutely breaks my
heart is there's people out there that accept jobs that they absolutely hate
without even thinking about it they stay with people who don't treat them right
because they're afraid to go on to anything else and they
accept societal standards without really taking the moment to sit there and ask
themselves: does this really REALLY make me happy? Make me happy in the way that
it catches my soul on fire and makes me dance in my room and sing with my deodorant
because that's the kind of happy that I want people to be in their life and when
I see somebody settling for anything less than they deserve it absolutely
breaks my heart and that's why we're here today. But it's important for you to
know that as you're chasing your dreams it's not going to be easy nothing is
easy even if you aren't chasing your dreams
that's not going to be easy either
nothing in this life worth having is an easy way to get there and that's okay
because the growth that you experience along the way is going to shape you into
the person that you were destined to become. I have gone through some pretty
heart-wrenching things in my life and I wouldn't mind going into detail into
those later on in different videos but in the moment it sucked it sucked so bad
but once I actually got through that and saw the light and the other side I saw
this person that I grew into and I was so proud of who I'd become and all those
struggles that I went through to chase my dreams really just gave me so much
more compassion not only for the world but appreciation for what I had and what
I was working towards as well. If you take anything at all from this video I
want you to know one thing and one thing only you are enough let that sink in for
a minute you are enough and don't let anyone ever tell you anything different
because it's not true and then if you keep listening the second thing I want
you to know is to never give up on your dreams because people say that it's
unrealistic because that's also not sure either and I am living proof of that and
I would love to go into further detail with you guys in future videos but just
know that you can do anything that you set your mind to and anything that you
open up your heart to if you are willing to put in the work and if you show up
every single day I can promise you that whatever your little heart desires that
you ARE capable of it you just have to know it first. A year ago I needed a
stranger to help me and I needed strangers to inspire me and they did and
I feel like I owe it to not only you guys and to the world but to the universe to
show people that they can do anything they set
their mind - and does this mean that I'm completely content with where I'm at in
my life? Absolutely not. I don't believe in be content, I think that everyone always
needs to grow and as you grow you become the person that you're supposed to be
If this topic is something that gets your heart pumping and sets your soul on fire
I encourage you to give this video a thumbs up and subscribe for some more
weekly videos. Before we go I am gonna give you guys a little sneak peek of what this
channel is gonna be all about sooo question number one: What is the most
valuable important asset that I have that has rendered success in my life? And
I'll tell you what it is choosing kindness. I know it sounds so
simple but it's true. When I was in a very, very dark place I was horrible to
myself. I told myself that I was nothing, that it didn't matter and that I wasn't
good enough and all this crap that everyone gets to at some point in their
life. And eventually when I got into a different mindset I chose to be kind to
not only myself which has helped me tremendously but also to others. So I
changed the vibe that I had in my head and the vibe that I put out in the world
and that has helped me immensely, in ways that I'm not sure you'll ever ever be
able to understand so I encourage you to implement that into your life. And the
word, "choosing kindness" is such a strange phrase/word because what does that
even mean? That can mean so many different things to so many different
people. But in my mind I think that "choosing kindness" is factored around a
couple things the first thing is kindness to yourself, kindness to your
soul, kindness to your body and kindness to other. And choosing kindness is so
much more than just being nice to somebody or to yourself too. Choosing
kindness is choosing to be optimistic instead of pessimist. And choosing
kindness is choosing to believe that you're worth more when you question
whether you are not. And most importantly choosing kindness is just being
determined and not defeated because when you're in the right mindset and when you
believe that you can do anything that you set your mind to I can promise you
that you will be unstoppable. And that is the most powerful asset that
you can have. Guess what guys?! Newsflash: and I'm sure you already know this but
you cannot give out healthy love if you do not have
healthy love in your heart which is why it's so important for you to learn how
to not only love yourself and choose to be kind to yourself but take that energy
that you have and put it out into the world because when you know how to love
yourself and you know how to love others guess what that means? It's a whole
freakin' domino effect of a life that you deserve to live and a life that you will
live as soon as you open up your mind to it. Anyways I'm sure you're probably
wondering what my passions are. Well, I'm a very indecisive person and I can't
just pick one but the things that I really just absolutely love is I love
fitness. I went on a fitness journey this past year I'd love to make a video about
that and share with you guys I lost a ton of weight I got super toned and it
was really fun and my dad calls me the "crazy workout lady" and I totally love
that because I worked hard for that name so he can call me the "crazy workout lady"
all that he wants because I am living for it. But anyways, I want you to know
that my passion may be fitness and I'm gonna encourage you guys to chase your
dreams through my fitness passion and my other passions that I have but just know
that just because your passion isn't the same as mine doesn't mean that you*
aren't going to take something from the advice that I have to pursue and chase
your dreams as well. And being healthy for me isn't just about fitness it's
about taking care of your mind and your body and your soul and really just
giving the best positive vibe that you can out there and that's one thing that
I really want to strive with this channel is to encourage you guys to give
out good vibes because I'm a firm believer that the vibes that you put out
attract your tribe and I think that if you put it out good vibes that's gonna
take you one step closer to your dream. Other passions that I really enjoy is
interior design. I love real estate I'm actually currently studying real estate
right now I just graduated with my degree but that's what I'm currently pursuing
in terms of like a real estate license. And I also love being outdoors that's
another one of my passions. But in terms of this channel I'm gonna focus a lot on
being healthy with your mind and your body such as fitness but I also would
love to get into further depth about umm like fashion and interior design and
home decor and all that stuff I am excited about. If you're interested in being
a part of the community that strives to be the best version of themselves

super excited to help you guys and show you guys how to lay the foundation of a

channel to. But in the meantime before you go, one thing that I really wanted to
do that I thought would be really fun and interesting is to 1. put an
inspirational quote at the end of every single video just to help you guys feel
good and get those good vibes out there and 2. I wanted you guys to comment
