Recently I've been feeling extremely unmotivated, to a degree I have never felt before. I feel completely apathetic towards school as a result. Recently though, on the bright side, I have through Steve's website and other resources come to realize my true passion to become a songwriter. My friend and I are trying to get starting in just writing music because that is our passion. I've been having this inner calling though to not wait, but to discontinue school and pursue my dream. But it isn't that easy...I would disappoint parents, relatives, and friends, possibly even make them angry. I feel trapped...can anyone relate and/or give advice?
