2. Learn to be independent. Its perfectly okay to not earn, but its important to be independent.
3. Learn to ride that bike or drive that car. You don’t always need an escort!
4. Plan your future. Learn about investments and taxes. Its not necessary to have someone else manage your savings and earnings all your life.

Plan and save for your own gifts n desires. You don’t always need a
boyfriend or husband or your dad to buy you something you love. Gift
yourself!

Let the father take care of the unwell child once in a while. Its okay.
Your career is equally important and the father is equally responsible.

Let other family members take care of your kitchen sometimes. Its okay
if the kitchen platform is exceptionally unclean or sink is full of
dirty vessels. Relax n take that break!

even if you don't like her. You never know what her battles are.
Empower the needy ones, like your maids. Teach her basics of hygiene,
education and finances, little guidance can go long way.

11. Have some friends (men and women) beyond your husband’s or boyfriend’s group. Its okay! Spend some time away from family with your friends.
12. Its okay to not cry. Not all women needs to be sentimental all the time.
13. Be vigilant,
be prepared to handle tough situations. When things go wrong, try to be
balanced and find way out of your problems. You don’t need to play the
victim.
