Career

Niall auditioned for The X Factor at the age of 16 in 2010. For the audition round, he sang ‘So Sick.’ He got confused reviews from the judges.

But after a suggestion by guest judge Nicole Scherzinger they put him into a five-person boy band. Later he sang in the group category with Liam PayneHarry StylesLouis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik. And this is how One Direction came into the world. Also, at the end of the competition, one Direction was placed third. Later, they signed a recording contract with Simon Cowell’s Syco Music and released five best-selling albums between 2011 and 2015. In 2016 1D disbanded. It left the whole world in awe.

Lesson to Learn

Niall Horan once said, “Everyone deserves to feel good about themselves, and if you don’t, then start because everyone is beautiful.” The trend of self-depreciation is just the type of trend you must not follow. People worldwide suffer from so many mental health issues that sometimes they have no one to listen to them. But if you’ve, please talk and try to solve it out the longer it takes to recover.

Niall was diagnosed with OCD and anxiety issues in 2018. He didn’t give up; he fought it and still fighting it every day. Never give up just because something takes time; even a child is born in 9 months. Trust the process, trust yourself; you’re going to make it pretty soon.
