There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people 36 to give you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you 38 others. Because while there will be times 39 outside advice turns out wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely40. The only way to really evaluate(评估) other peoples’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41. Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway.
You were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the proper action. Sometimes you will be more 45 if you don’t go against your own decisions.

Finally I stopped allowing myself to be affected by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to 54this---it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life.
