MODULE 9
THINK
1. The state or quality of being independent; freedom from dependence; exemption from reliance
on, or control by others; self-subsistence or maintenance; direction of one's own affairs without
interference.
2. The ability to live your life without being helped or influenced by other people
EXPERIENCE
The ability to be independent is something that not everyone possesses. You need to be
independent to survive in the world. Learning to support yourself is fundamental for any success
you ever hope to achieve. At the end of the day, you only have yourself to fall back on, so it is
exceedingly important to be able to handle things on your own. It is all about being secure with
who you are and what you believe in. It is extremely empowering knowing that you are in
control of your own life and your own choices. It is much more beneficial to listen to the voice
inside yourself rather than the berating opinions of others.
