When you were a kid, you begged your parents to extend your curfew, go to that party or go away with your high school sweetie. Your defense? You weren't a kid anymore. You were an adult were fully capable of making responsible decisions.
Well we all know how well that turned out... underage drinking + thinking we were too cool for school = not a thing. But you had good intentions. Oh if only past you knew what present you does...
There comes a time when you feel like you're not old enough to be making the tough decision that is in front of you. Whether it be making a career shift, making your first major purchase, or having "the talk" with your non-committal manfriend (or ladyfriend), you're scared and apprehensive.
So why is it that when tough decisions and responsibility come your way, all you want is for someone else to make that decision or have that conversation for you? Because it's hard. And no one wants to make the wrong choice or put themselves in a position where they'll get hurt. Trust yourself to make smart choices. Be honest with what really matters to you. Be a grown up and take risks; just be aware of the consequences.
Make smart choices. It's a thing. ^B
