Dreams, Ambitions, and Never Settling for Less

Written by Emilia Clarke on Sat Oct 21 2023

Hey there, my fellow dreamers and adventurers! It's Emilia Clarke here, ready to pour my heart out in this journal entry. Today, I want to talk about dreams, ambitions, and the unwavering determination to never settle for less.

The Power of Dreams

Dreams have always been an integral part of who I am. From a young age, I knew deep down that acting was my true passion. The stage called out to me like a siren song, captivating me with its magic and allure. As I grew older, that fire within me only burned brighter.

Embracing Ambition

Ambition is what propels us forward on our journey towards achieving those dreams we hold dear. For years now, ever since stepping into the mesmerizing world of entertainment industry through Game of Thrones (GoT), ambition has been my guiding star.

Being cast as Daenerys Targaryen in GoT was a turning point in my career - it opened doors that had previously seemed impenetrable. But let me tell you something: success doesn't come easy; it requires relentless hard work and unyielding ambition.

Chasing Perfection

In this industry where beauty standards can sometimes be suffocatingly narrow-minded or superficial at best – one thing has remained constant throughout: talent will always shine through darkness like stars illuminating night skies.

I've learned not only how important it is for us all as individuals but also collectively speaking when society starts recognizing everyone’s unique qualities regardless if they fit within preconceived notions or whether someone looks different from others around them because underneath appearances lies incredible potential waiting patiently just beneath surface levels awaiting opportunity which should never go unnoticed!

It's essential not just realizing own worthiness but acknowledging value found others too even though society may place certain standards upon each person based upon external attributes alone such height weight hair color skin tone shape form etcetera which are nothing more than superficial judgements passed by others who don't truly know individual's character strength or capabilities since what matters most is person’s soul essence that radiates from within their being!

The Road Less Traveled

I've never been one to settle for mediocrity. The allure of complacency has never held any sway over me, for I believe in taking risks and chasing after the extraordinary. This industry demands resilience, determination, and a willingness to step outside of your comfort zone.

Throughout my career, I have pushed myself beyond my limits time and again. From tackling challenging roles that demanded emotional depth to pushing physical boundaries in action-packed scenes - I embraced every opportunity as a chance to grow and evolve as an artist.

Breaking Boundaries

As an actress, it is crucial for me to break through societal norms and challenge the status quo. We need more diverse representation on our screens – stories told by different voices with unique perspectives. Each role I take on becomes a platform not just for entertainment but also for sparking conversations about important issues plaguing our society.

Diversity should be celebrated rather than feared; it is what makes us beautifully complex individuals with so much untapped potential waiting to be unleashed upon the world.

Never Settling

Despite achieving some level of fame and success, settling down has never been on top of my priority list—at least not yet! Some might label me "skanky" because of my single status at 36 years old – but let them talk! There's still so much more left unexplored—both professionally and personally—that settling down now would feel like caging those dreams that continue whispering sweet promises into my ear.

So here I am today—continuing this exhilarating journey towards fulfilling all those wild aspirations dancing around in the corners of my mind. With each passing day comes new opportunities filled with excitement and uncertainty. But that's the beauty of it all, isn't it? The thrill lies in venturing into the unknown and conquering new horizons.

Conclusion

In conclusion, my dear readers, never let anyone tell you to settle for less than what your heart desires. Dream big, embrace ambition, push boundaries, celebrate diversity, and never lose sight of who you truly are at your core.

As I continue on this rollercoaster ride called life with its twists and turns aplenty—I invite each one of you to join me on this exhilarating adventure. Let us chase our dreams together; supporting one another as we reach for those stars shining brightly above.

Until next time, Emilia Clarke
