I feel like at one point or another we will need someone in our lives to help us with something. It’s great when you have people that’s there for you and support you and your family, but it’s nothing like having your own and that is one of the lessons I try to instill in my daughters.
I hate asking anyone to do anything for me and when they do I feel like I have to return the favor. It’s like you wash my back and I wash yours. I can never be a user or become someones friend with motives behind it.
The worst part is when you ask someone for something and you are depending on it and they have you in the palm of their hands and then they flake on you. I’ve been in that situation before and thank God I was able to get out of it, but I vowed from that day forward to depend on myself. Someone can say they will do something for me and in the back of my head I know that if it doesn’t come through I got this. I can handle everything I need to do on my own, even if I have to pay someone or pay extra, me and my family will get and have what we need when we need it. Furthermore God always comes through for me. Always!
Make sure you save, take care of your credit, pay your car note/insurance and rent/mortgage on time and don’t use people. It’s nice to have a circle of people that’s there for you, but in the end depend on you because you will never disappoint yourself. xoxo
