Society projects perceptions of each on us, and personal constructs begin to form within our minds as we try to live a wholesome but experimental life. You know yourself more than you give yourself credit for. Make decisions based on you, not them. When you sit at breakfast across from your father, don't you want to be the kindhearted, genuine, and respectable young woman he raised?

This isn't staying inside the box, it is knowing who you are, and what you represent.

Explore your identity and the many possibilities the world has to offer, experience life while maintaining integrity and good intentions. It's cool to wander, just don't forget who you are.

We spend our whole lives building this tree and from the outside it looks like our reputation, but from the inside it is truly our soul - it's the core of our being. We are good people with good values. Not because our parents pressured us into them or because society convinced us what is good or bad, but because we choose to harness our genuine goodness, a goodness we've been blessed with, that so many people so rarely tap into.

Our generation is all "yolo" and "f^@$ it lets just do it, why not, no consequences".

But there are consequences - you can't always see them or feel them - they are inside.

Actions determine who you are to others.

And who you are externally determines who you are internally,

shaping our perception of ourselves. We're good.

Let's stay good because we want to, not because we have to.

Intrinsic Motivation.
