Learning The Basics Of Essential Life Skills

Living on your own might be something that you dream of achieving someday, but at the
same time, the thought can be scary. You need an income, and then after that you need the survival
skills to take care of yourself without anyone there to support you. This guide will help prepare
you for that transition so that some day you can live independently.

Firstly, create a support network. We need people to be there for us and to also be honest
with us and tell us how we can improve ourselves. Preferably, this network will extend beyond
family members and include at least one close friend that you trust. Ultimately, when you are living
on your own, you might encounter many obstacles you never thought of and you will want
someone there to be supportive of you and to help you as you navigate a life of independence.

Secondly, master your weaknesses. It is a good idea to try and be aware of your
weaknesses. If possible, have your close friend tell you what they feel are your biggest weaknesses.
It is also good to know your strengths, but it is your weaknesses that you need to work on. For
instance, you might get very focused on playing video games for hours, maybe days at a time.
While it is okay to play video games, playing them for days at a time when trying to live on your
own can lead to you losing your job and also your house. So, it is important that you recognize
your weaknesses and do your best to work with them.

Next, learn to balance your schedule. It is important to learn how to do multiple things in
a day. You need to be flexible and willing to schedule time for activities, work, and social
engagements.

Live a healthy lifestyle. You should exercise and try to eat healthy. You also have to
maintain your hygiene or you might find yourself out of a job.

Last but not least, follow your dreams and make them come true. Look through the
newspapers and online and find that apartment or house that you desire to live in. Decide that you
are going to move out and make it happen. Ultimately, living on your own is something that you
have to make happen for yourself. So, decide that is what you want and don’t allow anything to
deter you from your goal.

26. In order to live independently, you should ____

A. dream of achieving some day.
