To be this it means you rely on yourself and don't go to others for a lot of common questions. Instead of asking for help you work things out on your own so that you better understand any situation.

Edit:

Or in a more complete sense of the term, being self sufficient means you are able to produce all/most of your needs on your own. Getting food from hunting/fishing/gardening rather then at a store. Being able to produce shelter for yourself out in nature to protect yourself from weather/animals.

When used in terms of a country, it refers to the ability of the country as a whole to provide for the needs of it's citizens without help from other countries.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

I've poured enough drinks to know that people don't always want advice—they just want to talk.
