A secure password should be long, contain lots of different type of characters (upper and lower case letters, numbers, symbols, space, or hyphens), and not be guessable by someone that knows you.

A long random password as described above means that an attacker is unlikely to be able to 'brute force' your password - try every possible combination of characters until they find it. The balance is in finding a password that is also memorable so that you're not tempted to write it down and have it lying around somewhere that someone can find it.
