Frequently, the resources further developed are the very ones that have always been there—parents, teachers, friends. The difference? The individual now has the ability to make critical decisions, determine the steps and plan to make it happen…and how to include appropriate resources who may strengthen the success of the ultimate result. It becomes important to know when and how to ask for help and to realize that this is not a weakness, but a strength!
