Most of us say that God, or destiny or whatever superior force that may exist in this universe （宇宙）is what makes us our future and guides us throughout our existence.

   I don’t claim there isn’t such a force that can guide us and take care of us, but the main element(要素) that helps us build up our future is our way of being. Our personality, our character, our way of perceiving（感知） reality and everything that surrounds us are what may bring us to the top, or opposite it, make us miserable.  

   It’s simply your own choice if you don’t want to study, go to college or have a career. It really doesn’t matter if your parents threaten you, punish you or scold（责骂） you all the time. If you stick to be yourself and you think you know it all, then these are useless.

   You are the one who decides what job to have, in which city or country to live. It’s your choice and your responsibility. The moment you get hurt or something goes wrong, you blame yourself, and you start everything from the very beginning.

   You consider that you can’t find your place in your own country, so you risk the comfortable but modest（谦虚的） life you have with your parents and you go abroad. Maybe there will be moments when you can’t stand any more the loneliness, the strangers around you, or your job. But remember that nobody made you take that decision, so you have to take a deep breath, and then go on, as it’s very difficult to find a guilty person when you know it well that you are the only one to be blamed.

   If you fall in love with a man from the very first moment you set your eyes on him and you don’t want to meet somebody else, to see how they are, it’s your wish. If you get married and the marriage ends in a year’s time, you can’t blame the rest as they all have told you to be careful and never to takehasty （轻率的）decisions.

   You play the Lottery each day and there are two choices: each you hit the jack pot and your life changes totally or you lose and you have to restart it from the very beginning. It’s known that if you don’t risk, you can’t win. So the best solution is always to think over your decisions, and to see what they can represent in your future. Only afterwords is proper for you to make up your mind.

   You are the only architect（建筑师） of your future. The best are only workers who help you create your own dream.
