How avoid peer pressure?

It's completely impossible to avoid peer presure. It's everywhere: school, work, even within your family. The only thing you can do is not go along with the bad peer presure. It's no easy to choose to do the right thing if all of your friends, your peers, are doing the wrong thing. But you have to remember that you are amazing. If you weren't, you wouldn't be here. So because you're amazing, why waist your time doing bad stuff? Or why smoke? Smoking will eventually kill you and then you won't be able to live your amazing life. Why get drunk? There's a high possiblity you'll do something stupid. But you're amazing, not stupid. Don't get tricked into thinking you don't matter, or that it doesnt' matter what you do. Everything matters and is important. You matter!!! You're important!!! So take good care of yourself and don't fall into any stupid, worthless nonsense. *You can try to avoid peer presure by associating yourself with people that seem to be "better"*
