Marquis Elliott, AKA Preacher, answers this question when he sits down with Dirk van Velzen, CEO at the Prison Scholar Fund. Preacher believes many people are afraid of not being themselves because of criticism. He explores how some people need to understand that life is subjected to nothing but all types of criticism. Once you grab onto the fact that change is inevitable and not everyone will understand the person you are and/or became, then you will be able to accept who you are and find out what you’re supposed to be doing in life. Preacher digs deep into dreams, goals, and passions that are meant for you and you only, and if others do not understand them then maybe they are not meant to be around you or with you as you grow.
