Growing up doesn't always come with age. Sometimes the infantile period of life is delayed, especially if the parents do not give the teenager independence, protecting him from all troubles. To gain self-confidence and become a mature person, you need to learn how to make decisions and take responsibility for them.
Instructions
Step 1
Set important goals for yourself. Even if you are not too ambitious, have the incentive to move, not just drift with the flow. Do you want an expensive car? Do not forgive money from relatives, look for opportunities to earn money, even if at first this thought seems naive to you.
Step 2
Let all the decisions you make in life be only yours. If you are used to asking your friends for advice, as well as being guided by social stereotypes, constantly ask yourself the question: “What do I want, why do I need it, what is interesting to me?”.
Step 3
Develop your own attitude to everything - from the new fashion collection of your favorite fashion designer to Russia's foreign policy. Feel free to speak up on issues that you are well versed in, so your self-confidence will grow.
Step 4
Help those who are weaker. For example, take care of the animals, let the pets be your dependents. Is your dog sick? Previously, these problems were solved by your relatives, but now you yourself will find an experienced veterinarian, and also pay for the treatment.
Step 5
Enlist the support of loved ones. Tell that from now on you are fully responsible for your life, and ask you not to interfere in it unless absolutely necessary. Show firmness. Those to whom you are truly dear will be glad of your independence.
Step 6
Get psychological training for personal growth. Perhaps you are shy and used to always be on the sidelines. An experienced specialist will help to part with adolescent complexes, tell you how to fully realize your strong character traits.
Step 7
Being an adult does not mean denying yourself the pleasures of life. The main thing is not to shift responsibility for your life onto other people's shoulders. Take the initiative into your own hands, set achievable goals for yourself, do not be afraid of responsibility, and very soon no one will be able to reproach you for immaturity.
