Are you an independent person?

Page 2: Are you an independent person

What does independent means?

What does being an independent person means to you?

Is it a person who does everything by him or herself?

Is it a person who does not ask for help?In today society, many people who

considered themselves as independent are missing the main component, is to create and live their own lives.

Page 3: Are you an independent person

Are you living your own life?When it comes to the word independent,

it means relying on yourself, and this includes creating and living your own life.

If you are copying other people life or doing what they are doing, then you are not an independent person.

If you want to know if you are an independent person or not, then pay attention to how similar your life is to other people.

Ask for helpAlso, one false belief that many people have

is that independent people should not ask for help.

Even though independent means relying on oneself, there will always be times when you will need help because you are a human being, you will not know how to do everything.

As a matter of fact, if you need help to live your life, but are not asking for help, then you are not an independent person.

Wrong or right?There is a right and wrong way to ask for help. An independent person will actively engage

into the process when they are seeking for help.

For example, asking for help does not mean you allow the other person to do everything for you, and then just sit back and watch.

The person who is helping you is only there to assist you, and not to do the job for you.

If you did not learn anything after someone helped you, then you did not ask for help.

Are you gaining knowledge?The main purpose of asking for help is

to gain more knowledge so you can solve the same problem the next time.

As an independent person, you have to understand and believe that you are the main person who will accomplish what you want.

People are only there to show you the correct ways to accomplish things.
