Other people may have their own ideas for our life; we can value their thinking but we don't have to take it to heart. As children, our parents had dreams for us. They wanted us to do well in school, and to do whatever was necessary to reach our highest potential ( 潜力 ). Later in life, friends may try to affect us with their ideas of the perfect partner or the perfect job. People close to us may have ideas about how we should live our lives, and ideas that usually come from love and the hope for us to be happy. Other times, they come from a place of need within them — whether it is the parent who wants us to live out his or her dreams or the friend who wants us to play an already­established role. Whatever the case, we can appreciate and consider those people's thinking, but finally we must follow our own inner guidance. There may come a time when all the suggestions can become overbearing ( 专横的 ). We may feel that the people we love don't support our judgment, which can hurt our feelings. It can interfere ( 干扰 ) with the choices we make for our lives by making us doubt ourselves before we've had a chance to decide what we want. We can tell our loved ones how much we appreciate their thoughts and ideas, but that we need to live our own lives and make our own decisions. We can explain that they need to let us learn from our own experiences. When they see that we are happy with our lives and the path we are taking to reach our goals, they can make sure that all we need them to do is to share our joy. 1 .
