I was thinking: “This sparkly pink top is my favorite and tap is cool. Dancing with my friends makes me really happy. I just wish Mom let me practice it at home more, but apparently, it is ‘loud.’”

When you find what you're passionate about, knowing anything worth accomplishing is going to take lots of work and when you want to stop, keep going even if it is only small steps. Make sure to show appreciation to the people that help you along the way and set aside time to reflect, acknowledge self-improvement, and have celebratory dance parties when exciting things happen.”
