Go Super to Listen

Many people dream of making it as pop stars, but few do. It takes a combination of talent, hard work, and luck to make it. Lady Gaga must have all those qualities and more. She’s now one of the most famous pop stars in the world.

But Lady Gaga says she believed she had already made it even before she was really famous. She always knew she would be huge one day. Even when she was performing in bars before a tiny audience, she felt like a super star.

When someone makes it, she becomes a success and achieves something difficult. People don’t just make it as pop stars. They make it as actors, as doctors, as artists…anything that doesn’t come easily. No matter what your dream is, you can make it if you really try.

What is your dream in life? Do you think you’ll make it?
