Young adults struggle with lots of issues; finishing up school, finding a career, finding a partner to be with and most importantly figuring out who they are. But who are you? That can often be an overwhelming question to ask, especially when you feel like the people all around you have it figured out and you're just falling behind them. In fact, you may even have questions that you would NEVER feel comfortable talking to other people about for fear of being judged or even rejected by them. Don't worry though, you don't have to navigate life alone, in fact there's so much untapped potential in you that the world has yet to see. Realize your potential: It can be hard to see the potential we have to do really wonderful things in this world. This down-to-earth guide will help you feel comfortable taking small steps towards being somebody great.
From First Day of School to First Dance.
It can be hard to see the potential we have to do really wonderful things in this world. Figuring out how to make friends, develop relationships and be confident in yourself is a step by step process, and in this down-to-earth guide written by the popular teen advice YouTuber The Josh Speaks will help any you feel comfortable taking small steps towards being somebody great.
About the Author: Joshua Rodriguez is a motivational speaker on multiple digital platforms including YouTube, Snapchat and Instagram. Starting his YouTube channel in 2011, he has built a mass following of middle school and high school teens looking for advice in different areas of their life: self worth, relationships, academics and family. His videos and content has been featured in prominent marketing publications and has also been used in many different schools across the country. Josh was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York where he has worked in the education technology field for over 7 years communicating with teachers, principals and students all across the world. Josh is currently the digital media specialist at Hapara, designing digital media campaigns for teachers and school leaders in the education technology space. After graduating college, he noticed that more and more students were turning to the internet to learn about life issues and to ask questions they may have been too afraid to talk to their parents or friends about. From there Josh began to look at other motivational content creators online and saw a need for someone to be speaking to teens directly about these issues from a place of non-judgment and acceptance. Josh's teaching approach is inspired by the late Fred "McFeeley" Rogers who taught children they are special just the way they are and Buddhist Monk Thich Nhat Hanh who speaks about cultivating peace in every step.
