Everybody has to learn to be self-sufficient sooner or later. The sooner you learn – the better the quality of your life. Self-sufficiency = Personal Accountability! Personal accountability is one of the key traits that will put YOU in control of your life rather than leaving it up to someone else.

People who are not personally accountable blame it on someone else whenever something bad happens. The problem never gets better. It just repeats itself over and over. When you accept responsibility for your own life and your own actions you are in control. Then you are the person who can make your life better! When you leave your life up to others, its seldom that something good happens because they are too busy fixing their own lives.

Way to Go! But you better get your boyfriend to start thinking the same way! If he becomes dependent on you he’s not going to have much of a life either and eventually he will have self-esteem issues. The best of all worlds is that the two of you each take control of your own lives. Then you can become a great team!
