1. Authority

Keep in mind that there will always be authority figures whether it be parents, teachers, government, or others. Authority does not necessarily mean evil or bad, but too much authority could lead to negative outcomes if the goals are not in the interest of the people they serve. 

2. Your Choice

Unless you are a child, you almost always have the ability to say “no.” This innate ability enables you to step away from bad decisions that could hurt you or others. It may not always be easy, but it is the right thing to do in many circumstances.

3. Stand Strong

The majority will always follow authority. They are too timid to do anything else, but it’s been proven that 1 out of 3 people are willing to stand up for their beliefs and do the right thing even in the face of authority. I urge you to be 1 of those 3 since it’s also proven that when one strong person says “no” to evil 9 out of 10 people will then follow!
