Life lesson #1- To be self-independent

I generally try by all means to be independent, in this way I won't need anything from anybody. The second you are reliant on someone; the odds are likely that one way or another it will end in some form of disappointment. 

Doesn't it feel great to have the option to take care of yourself, and to be able to stand on your own two feet? To be free from control? 

Here are my 3 tips for those that find it hard/ difficult to be self-independent:

• Make decisions for yourself- it sure is good to listen to a second opinion, yet on the other hand, making decisions on your own rises your confidents of your own opinion. This will also prevent the judgements on opinions and arguments of disagreements. 

• Get to know yourself better- have you maybe felt recently that you might go crazy? It is mostly because you are focused more on others than yourself. This is your cue to start focusing on yourself. Find something you love to do, such as writing, painting or jogging. It could be anything, we all are different. You will find yourself ease up a lot more.

• Give yourself emotional support- it Is possible to give yourself emotional support! We tend to wait on others to give us emotional support, but what if the person is unavailable and you can’t get ahold of them? We are the ones in control of our inner feelings and we sure can control them as well. Besides, we are feeling it and not the one you are seeking for emotional support. So how will the other person know how we feel? Yes, we let them know but I’m certain they don’t know EXACTLY how we feel.

There are more ways you can learn self-independence, these three are the ones that help for me. We as a whole are different and what helps for me does not always imply that it will help for you.
