When you take charge of your life, there is no longer need to ask permission of other people or society at large. When you ask permission, you give someone veto power over your life.

Between fight and flight, the human beings have the freedom to choose. We have the unique capacity to decide the quality of our life, independent of the will of others. We need the support and cooperation of others, and their input will prove to be very important in deciding our success. But ultimately it is our free will which should decide our life.

Seeking help of others is different from seeking their permission. When we seek help, we still retain our freewill. On the other hand, when we seek their permission, we are likely to surrender our freewill. When we decide on something, we have our own reasons and justifications for our decision. Sometimes we may not be guided by logical reasoning, but our intuition. Others may not have this input. Hence, they may not agree with our view point. Sometimes we may not have the maturity to accept the decision of others when we ask their permission and in the process lose our relationship.

Empowerment is a result of our willingness to take charge of our life. When we take charge of our own life and fate, we may go through a lot of tension and stress. But that is the only way to exercise our freewill.

Over this weekend, you may do an exercise. Take two important decisions you took over the last six months and check whether you sought the help or the permission of others to decide, and notice what happened to the quality of your decision!
