Growing up does not always occur with age. Sometimes the infantile period of life is delayed, especially if the parents do not give the teenager independence, protecting from all ills. To gain self-confidence and become a mature person, you need to learn how to make decisions and take responsibility for them.
Instruction manual
one
Set important goals for yourself. Even if you are not too ambitious, may you have an incentive to move, and not just to drift with the stream. Want an expensive car? Do not forgive the money from relatives, look for opportunities to earn money, even if at first this thought seems naive to you.
2
Let all the decisions that you make in life be only yours. If you are used to asking friends for advice, as well as being guided by social stereotypes, constantly ask yourself the question: “What do I want, why do I need this, what am I interested in?”.
3
Develop your own attitude to everything - from the new fashion collection of your favorite fashion designer to the foreign policy of Russia. Feel free to speak out on issues that you are good at, as your self-confidence will grow.
4
Help those who are weaker. For example, take care of animals, let your pets be dependent on you. Is the dog sick? Previously, your relatives used to solve these problems, but now you will find an experienced veterinarian yourself and also pay for treatment.
5
Enlist the support of loved ones. Tell us that from now on you are fully responsible for your life, and ask that you do not intervene without extreme need. Be hard. Those to whom you are truly dear will be glad of your independence.
6
Take a psychological training of personal growth. Perhaps you are shy and used to always be on the sidelines. An experienced specialist will help part with teenage complexes, tell you how to fully realize the strong features of your character.
7
Being an adult does not mean denying yourself the pleasures of life. The main thing is not to shift responsibility for your life onto the shoulders of others. Take the initiative into your own hands, set achievable goals, don’t be afraid of responsibility, and very soon no one can reproach you with immaturity.
