One Little Thing.

If you do nothing else in your life, please just do one thing.  THINK FOR YOURSELF.  It matters, it matters a lot.  

Those who are all too ready to give you their opinion do not have your best interest at heart, they have an agenda: advertisers, your boss, your teacher, some of your friends.  They all have an agenda: they want you to spend your money on needless things, she wants you to tow the line and not cause trouble, he wants you to be an empty vessel, and some of your friends want you to stay just the way you are, so they don’t have to change anything about themselves either.

If you’re serious about change in your life, this is the first step, develop an opinion, or a point of view that you’ve arrived at yourself, that reflects your values and beliefs.  This one little thing, is the bravest and most important thing you can do.
