    This is amazing Troye. It's so easy to forget where you're going and get a bit lost, but it's so important to just stick to doing what you love and not giving a damn about what anyone else thinks. :) xxx

    One of the most inspiring videos I've ever seen. Especially with my new move to the L.A area, things were/still are real hard to adjust to. Why waste time being somebody you're not, stressing over the little things that keep you up way too late at night, and not enjoy life to its absolute fullest?! You inspire me and many others, man! Keep at it.

    Troye thank you so much for this video, I really needed this. Recently, I've being feeling pretty insecure and fearful like you, but this video really made me think. I'm going to start doing more things that make me happy. I'm going to work harder and take more risks. I'm going to be myself and live my life. This video was pretty short, but it sends a good message. Thank you Troye

  • @Peapyepeace
    @Peapyepeace 9 лет назад +401

    The first time I watched this video, I was just watching for the sake of "omg, troye uploaded a new video." But now that I look at it again, I've realized it's what I needed to hear. But there's one thing stopping me from being who I want to be; myself.
    I can't appreciate my body because this is not what I want to be. I can't appreciate what I'm doing with my life because it's not what I want. I want to love myself, but I don't know what I want.

    • @laleenah5163
      @laleenah5163 9 лет назад +8

      Then maybe focus on who you want to be and try to be the best YOU can be. You will always be you but you can change certain things and really only you are the person who is stopping you from that. Hope you find a way to appreciate yourself!

    • @lolameintjes
      @lolameintjes 9 лет назад +14

      Just like troye said, it's about creating yourself. Do whatever is in your reach. It's about being able to feel fabulous with your body. Be a confident person, that might not look like a model, is much more interesting than a bubble gum bitch (in my opinion). Not every one will look at you like you deserve but the ones that do see your beauty, are the ones that you want to keep close.
      One of my idols once said: the best day of my life was the day is started being myself.
      You see it's about being a better you. This doesn't mean bc you don't look/feel how you want to look/feel doesn't mean you are not giving your best.
      It's about being the pizza with the BEST tomato sauce you can find in your supermarket, it's about being the iPhone 100, it's about being the best quality of donuts in your mall!
      It's about the best version of YOU
      Lots of love 💕
      Hope this helps you in some way

      Shane Guab Do whatever feels the best for you. if you're not sure, don't think about the faraway future, live only for tommorow. If there's something that makes you unhappy and you know you can change it, than change it! and if you don't succeed at first try, don't give up, just try new angle. If you really can't change the thing, learn to love it and make it your secret weapon.
      Everyone has their own issues and I hope yours won't drag you down.
      Good luck ;)

    People never understand what I'm creating when I'm on a film set or throwing around wild ideas. When they see the finished product, it all makes sense. So now I keep it to myself until that end result, because frankly, it's about us. But if people want to come along for the ride? They're more than welcome :)
    And please, you rock those converse shoes/ They are all you. Woman are trying on 'Troye shoes', not the other way round.

    If somebody is interested in the script (or the lyrics) of the video :-)
    This is a video about platform shoes,
    among other things as well but mostly
    about platform shoes.
    For as long as I've been creative, I've been fearful.
    Fearful of rejection, fearful of failure, fearful of
    "who does this kid think he is?". But a year ago I
    signed my record deal and I thought I was going to
    wake up one morning and all of a sudden be the
    dopest person on the planet. With sick style and
    incredible music. I realized soon after that it was not
    going to be that easy.
    I realized that the art I appreciate and the people I
    appreciate are not just your average person walking
    down the street. You can take away their money and
    take away their fame. And they will cut up a garbage
    bag and be wearing it like it just came off the runway
    in Paris. They'd still be doing that thing that is just
    left of center that you either love or you hate, but to be
    frank they don't give a fuck what you think.
    Art is risk. Upon realizing this it had been an interesting
    journey. I'm on the path to being a person I'm equally
    terrified by and obsessed with. My true self. I realized
    that if I wanted to make cool shit, I had to make cool shit.
    If that cool shit was letting myself scream into a microphone
    in a room full of people looking like a complete idiot, because
    I know it's going to sound amazing on the final track, it's about
    doing that. But this doesn't only apply to me. If it means taking
    rad photos that your friends are going to condescendingly call
    'so tumblr', it's about doing that. If it's about singing on the top
    of your lungs when you're tone deaf, it's about doing that. If it's
    about showing off your ass because you know it's cute, even
    though you might get called a slut, it's doing that. If it's wearing
    something you probably can't pull off, like women's platform
    converse shoes when you're a 19 year old man, it's about doing that.
    Whatever it is, I urge you to do it. Don't let people stifle you because
    you're doing the shit that they have always been too scared to do.
    Love your body, let your mind wonder, and let yourself be the person
    you've secretly always wanted to be.
    Life isn't about finding yourself,
    it is about creating yourself.

    This is still the realest shit I have EVER heard. It's all true, kids.
    When I first watched this video, I was terrified. Because I knew I have to change and I have to get started to do what I really want oderwise I won't have any other 'tomorrow' anymore.
    So I did. I couldn't love my body; I started to work out, I lost a lot of weight, now I'm on the path to love my body. I had to change ; I cut my hair because all my life I had long hair, and I love it more than ever and now I have a bitter taste in my mouth because I was such a coward to not doing it earlier. I wear clothes I actually like and which are actually fit. I got confidence, I'm braver than ever. And maybe I've never been in love or got drunk, travel on a plane ;but that's okay. I realized I have countless options. Maybe I'm still not the person I want to be; but I'm getting closer by every day.
    And Troye was an incredible inspiration for changing. Maybe I'm not happy, but I'm on the right path to be. I'm so grateful. Thank you.
    I'm not saying you have to change to be happy - but if you're unhappy, you need to change.

    It's not about finding yourself but about creating yourself.
    So right. I never liked the "find yourself, find who you are" thing. It implies that what you are is already decided but you have do find yourself and conform to yourself. Creating yourself is more about being in control of you and what you become. You do have a choice, you can become who you want to be, whatever that is (as long as it's legal and not hurting anyone). I used to stop myself from doing things I would have secretly wanted to do, thinking "this is not me, it would be weird, people would think I'm trying to be someone cool I am not", but this is so wrong. We decide what character we want to play in the great RPG of life, we can develop our character the way we want and there is no such thing as "doing something OOC" when it's something you want to do.

    This has really helped me so much, I've always wanted to be an actor-not for fame, money or glory, but because of how fun it would be meeting new and interesting people that I will hold onto forever. I just need to keep at it, believe that I can and hope one day I'll make it into the film industry-hopefully. This was really amazing, and I feel exactly the same way, people judging you just because you have dreams that may seem out of the ordinary but are achievable. I love your music and everything, I hope the best for the future in the music and youtube industry, Troye.

    So I went to Virginia over my fall break and while I was there I went shopping, when I go shopping with my mom I usually go into store like Gap and Old Navy. I use to play it safe with my style. When I finally went shopping on my own, I found clothing that finally made me feel like me. I redid my make up and when I went back home two days later I was a totally different person. I was more confident in my self and the choices I wanted to make as a person. I was finally able to concur my writers block and start a project that I am truly excited about. I stopped waiting for the right time to create projects and instead I just sat down took my camera out and went out and took pictures and video. If you want to make cool shit, you've got to create cool shit. I'm not going to waste my life anymore. I'm going to create the content that I really just want to create. Not the content that people want to see.

They think I'm lazy and don't want to do anything. I'm literally all day on the Internet making edits for my fandom account on Instagram or watching videos.

      You do you. Don't let anyone tell you how you should be, because you're awesome like this. Accepting yourself is long journey, but it's worth it, so good luck! ;)
