Expecting others to always stay, understand you, or guide you can leave you dependent on something you can’t control. Learn to create enough space within yourself that being alone feels safe rather than empty.
The same applies to your mind. Constantly consuming other people’s opinions, advice, and social media can drown out your own judgment.
Spend time alone. Listen to yourself. Your heart can help you decide what matters, and your mind can figure out how to move forward.
Let other people add to your life—not become the foundation of it.
