The choices we make  are very important because they don't only affect you but also everyone around you. Sometimes you may think that the littlest choices don't matter but when they all start adding up they might turn out to be the ones that have the biggest impact on you. For example, you probably don't think that not doing your homework is a big choice but every time you think to yourself  " oh its just one it won't affect my grade ",  all the assignments start adding up and by the end your grade will have changed so fast when you thought it wasn't such a big deal. All choices lead to actions and those actions will determine how your future will be. When making a choice you have to take your time and  think it through, always think of how it may affect you and  even the ones around you not just in the present but also in the future. No matter what the outcome is good or bad, know that everything you overcome makes you a stronger wiser person.

        From reading self reliance i have learned to always follow your own ideas not what others want you to think. No matter what people think or might say to you, you should never want to change just to fit in because being yourself is always better.
