How to be independent
Welcome cash readers to my article 😊, I hope you had a good day at work, home, business and what so ever you are doing for survival. Well, by doing all of that remember to smile always. Today article is about being dependent, are you depending on someone, your parents, partner and guidance etc. This article will help to stop been dependent on someone else but by yourself.
We all rely on others to some extent--there’s nothing wrong with needing others. Leaning on people for support is part of being human.
As young children, we rely on our parents for everything. In our teenage years, we slowly start to venture into the world and have some personal freedom--yet still ultimately rely on the adults in our lives.
Even in adulthood, we need other people. None of us can go through this life completely alone.
With that being said, it’s also important to feel confident in yourself and your abilities. It feels good to know that you can trust yourself to make your own decisions and handle things on your own.
Learn more about yourself
The first step to becoming more independent is knowing what you want--and acting on it. If you’re consumed with the idea of what other people think or want, you’ll never gain true autonomy.
It’s not a bad quality to consider the opinions of others. However, when you value the thoughts and feelings of other people over your own, you undermine your own authority.
If you really want to be more independent, it’s essential to get to know yourself: your personality, likes and dislikes, needs, and goals. You can use journaling, meditation, time in nature, or whatever fits your personality to gain a deeper understanding of yourself.
Spend time with yourself
Having time alone to build independence seems obvious, but it’s easier said than done. Many people struggle to eat alone at a restaurant, go shopping by themselves, or even be at home without another person there.
I know someone hearing this, will feel if you are a loner, but sometimes I practice it when I need space, I keep my phone aside and focus on my life
Thanks everyone for reading
You are right, spending time with oneself is very important
