Being independent is an impressive achievement. While there’s nothing wrong with asking for help once in a while, it’s hard not to feel awe and admiration for someone who’s decisive about what they want without obsessively consulting everyone they know for their input. Whether they suddenly decide to leave everything behind to take a stab at life across the world or to build a life for themselves without relying on anyone, these independent individuals likely have one (or several) of these signs:

Aquarius
An air sign that’s all about individuality, Aquarius is one of the most self-reliant signs in the zodiac. They get a reputation for being a little icy despite their great socializing skills, but they often prefer to observe the drama unfolding in front of them rather than be part of it, notes PureWow. Aquarius prizes themselves for being true to who they are, feeling complete disinterest in the status quo or what’s trendy. As a fixed sign, they’re often single-minded about their goals and want things to be a specific way—and the easiest way to do this is to just not get anyone involved. They’re perfectly fine being by themselves—they’re used to not finding anyone to share their niche interests with, anyway.
Sagittarius
This happy-go-lucky, freedom-loving sign will always prioritize themselves first. They’re free-spirited and usually a little difficult to grab ahold of, which is why remote work is perfect for them—they’re able to work wherever they want, allowing them to tick off numerous destinations from their bucket list without having to take a leave. It’s not like they hate relying on others or asking for help—it’s just usually nearly impossible to keep up with their speed. They also like to keep their own schedule, says PureWow, and if your timelines don’t align, you’ll see them only when they decide to appear again.
Capricorn
Powered by their unmatched ambition, Capricorns won’t wait around for anyone to catch up to them. Ruled by disciplinarian Saturn, Capricorns thrive on structure, distance, and isolation, remarks PureWow, so they often work by themselves. Their innate independence is why they make excellent leaders, as they’re indifferent to the opinions of others: they know what goals to set, the insights to account for, and numerous scenarios to prepare for. Though they love feedback, they’re not preoccupied with it; once they get input from others, they’ll retreat into their offices and continue working as they like.
