Where you live, what you do with your life, and who you end up marrying or being with are the three pivotal things that will shape your life more than anything else. You know that you have more to give. You want to create a life that is completely different than the ones your parent experienced. If you turn to your parents to get advice, you are not going to be able to create the life you want, because they are going to give you the advice that they did based on their experience. You should care about the people that you admire that have accomplished the things you want.
