<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Being independent means not being dependent on other people. People you can be dependent on are, for example, your parents, a partner in an unequal relationship, a clinging friend or work colleagues. Dependence is usually the seemingly easy path, as many people are afraid of radical change.
Independence is the key to self-esteem, you have to overcome fear and live an independent life to be satisfied. How do you become independent?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The desire for independence is an important step in the right direction. It's not easy to let go of fears, so you need to make a plan and make the changes in your life as safe and comfortable as possible.<\/p>\n
Independence starts with making your own decisions. Nobody should control your own life. Nor should you automatically turn to someone else when it comes to making decisions. Decisions are hard, but everyone has to make them for themselves if they want to live their own lives.<\/p>\n
Independence includes a secure financial position. This may mean sacrificing certain comforts in the short term, but in the long term you can build an independent life by budgeting and calculating. You shouldn't shy away from the fact that you have to take a smaller flat with less luxurious facilities, for example, if this is the price you have to pay for independence and a life of your own.<\/p>\n
\n
To prepare for independent living, you need to start paying your own bills, providing your own transport, buying your own food and saving hard until you have enough to take the plunge into freedom. Financial freedom gives you inspiration and self-confidence.<\/p>\n
As a young adult, it is important to leave the parental home as long as the desire for one's own identity and independence is present. There are cases who are still living with their parents at the age of 40, as they are no longer prepared to make sacrifices for their independence at this age.<\/p>\n
True independence does not need a constant companion. You can also go to a restaurant or the cinema alone. In fact, it is very useful on the path to independence to 'practise' being alone and spend time with yourself and your thoughts. In this way, you get to know yourself better and find out what you want from your life. In life, you have to be the leader, not the follower.<\/p>\n
One of the biggest mistakes that lead to attachment is wanting to please everyone and please everything. There is only one person you have to please: yourself. Even if it means offending someone else, because that can't always be avoided. It's okay to criticise others sometimes, because they don't always do everything right either. You shouldn't simply agree with other people or run after them in order to please them if your own satisfaction suffers as a result. You have to think for yourself, have a mind of your own and be positive; that's the best way to lead an independent life.<\/p>\n
At the beginning, you will certainly have to overcome many smaller and larger hurdles. But with more practice, it gets easier and you feel proud and strong. As your self-confidence grows, living independently becomes easier and easier.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Unabh\u00e4ngig sein hei\u00dft, von anderen Menschen nicht abh\u00e4ngig sein. Menschen, von denen man abh\u00e4ngig sein kann sind zum Beispiel die Eltern, ein Partner in einer nicht ebenb\u00fcrtig gef\u00fchrten Beziehung, ein klammernder Freund oder Arbeitskollegen. Meist ist die Abh\u00e4ngigkeit der scheinbar leichte Weg, denn viele Menschen haben Angst vor radikalen Ver\u00e4nderungen.
