Journal #23: Self- Sufficient

It is important to be self-sufficient, especially in high school.  You need to be able to take responsibility for your classes, homework, and other responsibilities.  In class, you must pay attention and learn the lessons you must know in order to complete latter homework.  This is a self- sufficient time in your life.  You must rely on yourself, and only yourself, to learn and school and make yourself pay attention.  You also must rely on yourself to do your homework as well.  You must first learn, then you must look back at the information and retrieve it from your memory.  This is a responsibility to learn in your life and you have to be self sufficient to process this important aspect of school.  Also, there are many other aspects of life in which you must be self-sufficient in.  When you learn to drive, you rely on yourself to keep others on the road safe.  You must make driving decisions yourself while you drive.  This is a self-sufficient process.  Also, going to college involves much of the previous self-sufficient processes. One must rely on themselves when trying to live on their own.  not only are they living alone, but they are also trying to keep up responsibilities.  This is a self-relying time in one's life.  Also, one must be self reliant because in the end, it will only be you.  You may have many friends in the world, but at one point in your life, you will be alone.  I know that is sad to think about, but it is an unfortunate truth.  Self sufficiency is a must need trait and quality one must contain in their life.  You need to be self sufficient in order to get through high school and college, and also in your future workplace.  Your peers and boss will expect things from you on time and well done.  If you cannot do this, you will be unsuccessful in your life and will never know how to function properly on your own.
