Gone are the days when we used to be dependent on our family, our friends & society as a whole; cause, "We an afford it.". To loose friends, to loose family & to loose your well-wishers just because you don't need them; or to be more specific, "You can afford them".Do we for god sake understand the need to be self-reliant & not shirk the responsibility by calling ourselves independent. Another critical issue is sustainability & self-sufficiency for being self-reliant.
There are several core issues in the society that needs to be monitored - addressed at times & the best person who is able to do those are self-reliant.In an era of intense modernization/automation; which i call "Smarter Phones for Smarter Dummies" - because lazy & smarter people will find an effective & easiest way for getting things done. This ain't just because you can afford it, you need not know about how to grow your own food, how to build a shelter for yourself - Just in case you find yourself landing in the middle of the jungle the next day you wake up. Also, in real life examples like a country being hit by a severe drought & you scream; "Heyaa, why the tap is not working ha!" - just not gonna work out.
The agendas like being self-reliant, self-sufficient & sustainable shall be addressed only if one shows core competence. One doesn't need to compete others but you. All you need to get is 80% right. (Click the link to read about why you don't need to be 100% right).
So next time when you call yourself independent - Be proud only if you mean self-reliant, self-sufficient with a sustainable model & of course being dependent on your family, friends for letting them your accessibility. Not to forget your core-competence against you for getting only 80% right.
