Most people are living by rules they didn’t choose. They act a certain way, believe certain things, and chase certain goals — not because they really want to, but because someone told them they should. That “someone” might be parents, school, religion, culture, or social media. You’re trained from a young age to fit in, follow the rules, and not question anything. When you do question things, people say you’re being difficult or wrong. That’s not an accident — it’s how control works. The truth is: If you don’t choose your own path, someone else will choose it for you. And they usually don’t have your best interests in mind. Breaking free means starting to think for yourself. It means asking: “Do I really believe this, or was I just told to?” “Am I doing this because I want to, or because I’m scared of what people will think if I don’t?” You don’t need permission to live your life your way. You don’t need approval to be yourself. Some people won’t like it when you stop following the script. That’s okay. Let them be uncomfortable.
