Study Notes
Taking Control of Your Life
- Personal Responsibility: No one will hand you control over your life. It requires active participation and action.
- Independence: Success should not hinge on approval, actions, or authority of others, including government programs.
- Breaking Free: If you're tired of being controlled, take charge by embracing your freedom. Freedom means no longer relying on others for basic needs.
- Self-Sufficiency: Provide for your own food, shelter, and other necessities.
- No Looking Back: Leaving the system means leaving completely. Don't expect handouts or rely on those who previously controlled you.
- Master's Strategy: The dominant power may tolerate anger and protest as long as it reinforces dependence on the existing system.
- Direct Action: Don't wait for permission or assistance. Take control and forge your own path to success.
- Abundant Opportunities: Freedom allows you to achieve anything you desire. Seize the opportunities available to you.
- Motivation: Strive for success because you are free, not to spite those who previously held control. Enjoy your freedom!
