Why do people stop working towards achieving their dreams?

:financial struggles

I was born with plenty of..talent. I loved singing, and dreamed about being a singer, but i was told that I wasn't pretty enough, and did i have a voice! I loved drawing but my mom kept on telling me how useless that is and that artists die in hunger. I loved justice, and wanted to become a judge, but my parents kept on telling me that i am not smart enough. So.. I gave up on doing things i loved and dreamed about. Now, I started dreaming again, now, when there is no influence arround me anymore to suppress who i am, but following my dream now comes at a cost; a cost i can not afford. I didn't give up on this one yet but seems financially impossible.

Telling others about your dreams. They can then ridiculize you. And you can begin to kind of..back off.

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

:friends/family influence

There's a bunch of reasons that i can think of right now.

:not enough support

Can you write a short story with a twist ending?

Hope this helps clear it up a bit. Is my personal experience, it doesn't have to be this.
