To be self-reliant adults, we need to get some guidelines:

• Be different, if it means higher personal and professional standards.
• Be different, if it means being more gracious and considerate to others.
• Be different, if it means being cleaner, neater and better groomed than the group.
• Be different, if it means putting more time and effort into all you do.
• And be different, if it means taking the calculated risk. The greatest risk in life is to wait for and depend upon others for your own security. The greatest security is to plan and act, and take the risk that will ultimately ensure your personal freedom and independence.
