Listen to your inner voice
There is a voice within each and everyone of us that tells us exactly what needs to be done. The problem is we tend to ignore that voice and do what our ego tells us to do, and when we do this it leads us to hardships. We must become concious of that inner voice and learn to follow it regardless of what others think. Always keep your goals out in front of you, stay on purpose you can feel it, and remember you can go from ordinary to extroidinary. It takes trials and tribulations this is called learning. Think of it as being in school choose your major wisely.
