Are you an independent
person?

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. Ask for help
Also, 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.
