Pamela is only 24 years old and has already made the Forbes list. Occasionally, one afternoon, she read this sentence in a book: "Find a job you like and never have to work again". She just turned 10 that year, and the concept of "work" is still very vague.
Pamela didn't know at that time that this sentence would become an extremely important beacon in her life in the future, guiding her to move forward at full speed in another direction. Recently, a German fitness blogger named Pamela, "Devil Pa", withdrew from the circle.
Pamela Reeve was born in a family of four in this city from 65438 to 0996. Her father is a photographer and her mother runs a clothing store. Besides, she has a brother who is five years older than her. A good family and enlightened parents gave Pamela a happy childhood.
At school, because of her self-discipline and hard work, her grades have always been among the best. At the same time, this girl with an infectious smile is very popular. Even Pamela herself admitted: "Although this is not good, I didn't encounter any setbacks in the process of growing up."
However, when she was 0/7 years old, everything changed. This year, she encountered the first setback in her life, which was also a turning point. Near high school graduation, Pamela got the highest score in the German education system in the entrance examination, and she can choose any major she wants to study. The future is bright, but Pamela is confused.
In the eyes of parents and teachers, they have almost acquiesced that the excellent Pamela will become a lawyer or a doctor and embark on this "elite road". However, Pamela is not interested in this paved road, which makes her feel bored every time she thinks about it. She said: "I basically stood there, surrounded by all my parents' hopes, at a loss." "
Pamela knows that she is at an important fork in her life, and the decision made at this time will greatly affect her life process.
After struggling for a long time, Pamela decided to do a job with "light in her eyes". Her theory came from a sentence she once read from Mark Twain: "Find a job you like and never have to work again". And this job is to become a fitness blogger rooted in the Internet.
At that time, her decision was not favored by her family and friends. In their eyes, "becoming an online celebrity" is not a formal occupation, but an "unimportant hobby". But for Pamela, the decision was not impulsive. In her 17 years of life, sports have always been an important part of her life-Pamela 10 started dancing, and 15 entered the gym for strength training. In addition, under the influence of the photographer's father, she also likes to record her life with a camera, and opened her own Instagram account at the age of 16, where she shared her fitness photos and life. By the time she graduated from high school, Pamela had accumulated nearly 500,000 fans.
At that time, Instagram was just emerging, and no one knew where this social network would go in the future. Every blogger is trying something different, so when an Australian tea brand found Pamela to advertise, she didn't refuse. Although this advertisement only made Pamela earn 50 euros, it made her feel the unprecedented happiness of this job. As a result, she started her career as a "fitness blogger". Everything is full of unknowns. Pamela doesn't know whether she will succeed. The only thing she knows for sure is that this job will make her shine.
On the Internet, Pamela has set up two accounts. One is her own personal account. On this account, she lists rich and organized contents: from fitness to skin care, to personal thoughts and answering questions from netizens. Pamela is in good order. In addition, she also has an account to share food. On this account, she shared various fitness recipes, all of which were designed and cooked by herself. In order to ensure the taste of the food, she will personally taste each dish and constantly adjust and modify it.
With Pamela's insistence, in just a few years, her fans have increased from 500,000 to 2 million, and now it has increased to 6 million. At the same time, she will post her own fitness videos on YouTube, and the hottest video has been watched by nearly 40 million people. The fitness method she advocated began to affect more and more netizens, and the word "Pamela" began to look more like a way of life than its name.
Pamela looks particularly glamorous in front of the camera, but behind the camera, her efforts are beyond ordinary people's imagination: no matter how busy she is at work, she takes time out to exercise every day, and she has formulated 52 fitness recipes in just two months. In addition, she also launched her own fitness APP to provide users with practical fitness programs, and wrote a book of her years of fitness experience, which won the first place in the Amazon bestseller list in the month of release.
Today, Pamela earns millions of dollars in advertising fees every year just through video clicks. In 20 19, she also appeared on the cover of Forbes magazine and was invited to attend the European summit of Forbes under 30. This year, Pamela was 23 years old.
Many people think that this young businesswoman must have a huge operation team behind her, but in fact, she still lives in the bedroom on the second floor of Karlsruhe, and the team behind her is only her family-her brother is her photographer and her father is her accountant. Now, less than six years have passed since she 17 decided to follow her dream. In this short time, Pamela proved with her own efforts that dreams and reality have never been ignored. And the light in her eyes is brighter.
