Should one follow his/her dreams or do what situation requires?

Do what the situation requires, of course.  what good is a dream if you can't even reach it just because you didn't do what was needed and was put down in some big way?

If you want to do something,you have to fight for it.Today,wishes cannot came true all by themselves,because life isn't easy.Do not expect that in life everything will go just the way you want to-because it will not.Help in life-sure,from your friends and family.But they can only tell you what to do,but they can't LIVE your life.If you want something so bad,sit,think about it (is it real,possible) and find a solution.Find a way to,on your own,make YOUR wishes come true.Every human for itself has to find the most unpainfull way to live life.Life is the net which is made of sadness,happiness,love,hate...Life is the most amazing thing on the world (and in universe too).Do NOT waste it.

None at all. You need something to fall back on. If you're inspiring a career; you need to go to college and then follow the road of your dreams.

your dreams are what drive you to achieve reality... always follow your dreams, no- matter how silly they may seem...seek out what is inside of you , what you really want, in your dreams you can see things imagined become real

A 17th-century poet wrote that the greatest waste in the world is the difference between what we are and what we could become.\n\nI think he's right. Most people live, work and operate way below the level at which they are truly capable of.\n\nBut to answer your question, I would say that it's a good idea to stretch yourself and go out of your comfort zone, little by little.\n\nIt is not necessary to go for your "dream life" because it would put too much pressure on you for nothing. Just do something every day that makes you feel alive.\n\nAnd it's definitely not necessary to "risk everything." Life is like a casino, except that the more you play, the more you can improve your odds of success.\n\nI coach entrepreneurs on launching their companies, and the issue of fear comes back often. I always tell them that "the presence of fear is simply the absence of knowledge."\n\nYou can do anything you want in life, and pursue any goal, as long as you keep learning from people who have done it before and heed their advice and counsel. The more knowledge you gain, the more confident you will be, and the less fear you will have.\n\nLife is just too short to be content with what you have. In fact, your asking this question is the proof that you are seeking something else! :-)\n\nGood luck!

I've been following my dreams since I was 30 (14 years ago), and have found plenty of happiness and fulfillment.\nIt takes a lot of hard work to build foundations under your "castles in the air," but ultimately, it's more than worth it!

Reward yourself when you succeed. You deserve to have your dreams, and to make them come true. Believe in yourself completely and others will also believe and trust you.

Pursue it dont let go, if the ideas good?

You figure out what dreams you want to work on, make a plan to persue them, and don't allow yourself to be so proud as to never ask for help. Allow yourself to fail, without giving up. Focus on what you as a person need, but don't let this surpass the needs of your child.\n\nI hope you find what you're looking for in life. Best wishes!

If your about to get a scholarship then I would recommend that you stay, But I would recommend to you even more to follow your dreams. Dont let your dreams get shatttered by not doing what your heart told you to. Listen to your heart by going where you feel most attracted to. If you dont really feel attracted to cheer  then look for something else until you find what is most appealing to you. If you follow your dreams and your heart you might end up later on in your life with a bad paying job but inside you'll most likely be happy that you followed your dreams and that you're doing what you always wanted to do.

Not too sure what you are asking....Don't do it if it doesn't feel right, or you are not ready, you always have a choice and can decide to do or not to do...

See the other answer.  It really depends on what you want to do next in your life.

Follow your dream, because if you don't realize your dream while you have the opportnity then you'll always reproach it to your boyfriend.\nYou'll get so much from this experience that you'll never be the same, and you can't possibly regret to realize what you've always wanted to do.\nPlus, if he's Mister Right, he'll understand and you'll manage it!\n\nLong distance relationship can work.I'm having one!
