Second Tenet of Transcendentalism: Self-Reliance

                      The second tenet of Transcendentalism is Self-Reliance. Self-Reliance is to reach for your dreams. Never wait for others to do it for you. Always think a step ahead of everyone. Don't rely on anyone but yourself. Be INDEPENDENT.

"Go confidently in 
the direction of
your dreams. Live 
The life you have
imagined."
-Henry David Thoreau

        

Self-Reliance to me is very important. Why? Because thanks to knowing the meaning to it, makes me want to follow my dream into opening my own hair and nail salon and becoming a cosmetologist. The reason why i picked the house from the movie "Up" was because the old man had promised to put his house on the island and yes he accomplished it.
