In the journey of life it’s very important that you firstly believe in yourself and
know your goals and have a very firm stand and opinion about what you believe in. Possess a kind of inner strength and power within you. It is very important that you learn to have a stand in life. By that I mean a firm belief in what or how you want to live your life. Once this is established it is not easy for anybody to walk all over you or mislead you. From the onset of human life, you are trained to be independent. If this were not true, there would be no need to separate Siamese twins, make wheel chairs, clutches etc. all in an effort to make the human being independent. When this does not happen you become a burden to society and source of concern to your immediate family.

| 17-21 years |
Considered an
adult and set free. |
This goes to show that a human being is brought into this world, trained and then is supposed to be set free to make his/her own decisions. He/she is not supposed to be under the shelter and guidance of his parents for the rest of his life because they too need to get on with their lives and soon will get old and also requires their child’s help. So if the grooming was not done properly the effects are seen when you grow old and he/she ends up as a vagabond. (Related:
How to make
a new beginning?)
After every encounter with people, situations or the surroundings, make it your goal that it be a learning process and then go home and do some homework by asking yourself:
If it were I, how was I going to handle that issue? Was that person right in what he/she said, “What’s my opinion on the matter?”
