"You can't give another human the responsibility of your happiness." LOVED THIS

[@EvanCarmichael]

Yes...your happiness...your life is up to you. :) Always #Believe in yourself and keep taking action to achieve your goals. #BTA559 Shine

[@fredricklee]

As a fellow HBCU alumni, I love to see people like Taraji succeed. All of her tips are great, but taking risks is what separates those who live life versus those who are just living. My favorite quotes are "Life is not safe" and "If you allow others to project their fears onto you, you won't live." Be bold, take a chance, and enjoy the journey.

[@EvanCarmichael]

Thank you for watching and for sharing your thoughts Fredrick. Yes, life is about taking risk, courage and enjoying the journey. :) #Believe #BTA457 Shine

[@tenishasylvester8472]

When fear arises check it...live by faith. #4 is my favourite point. Definitely worth remembering and 6 as well

[@jasminepeace4804]

"ignore your fears" "Be a fighter" "Take control of your life" "Chase your dream"

[@justbleuoflife5905]

Always chase your dream and focus on your passion, that make you success

"IF the role doesn't scare me , I don't want it because it doesn't help me go grow as a person"

#1 and #7 really hit close to home. I have very strick and overprotective parents that won't let me take any risk because they are afraid for me, but they need to understand that they can not control my life. And once they finally understand that, I can follow my dreams as an entertainer.

Ok, the point that she brought out about if you hang out with someone who has a dark cloud than eventually the rain is going to get you. Oh my goodness, that is so true. She also said that the dark cloud person should go over there because she likes the sun. That had an impact on me because I used to be the dark cloud person but now I'm much more focused and uplifting to myself and others and lord knows how much I like the sun! So that was a good one!

[@EvanCarmichael]

some very amazing advice that I will take with me everywhere that I go. Thank you Taraji for simply being you and for never letting anyone take that away from you. Thank you for excepting challenges and proving that with GOD anything is possible . The world needs people like you people who are over comers, fighters, people with perseverance, and people who are persistent. What would I do if I did not listen to you?, who would I be if I did not care to know who you were?, where would I be today. Would I still believe that any and everything is possible with God . Would I really know the definition of Faith ? If I new what Faith was would I live my life using Faith as a guide in this world?
