Summary

This quote suggests that relying too heavily on external factors or other individuals for one's well-being or success can lead to a loss of personal autonomy and control. When we become overly dependent on outside forces, we grant them power over our lives and potentially become submissive to their influence. Therefore, it implies that true freedom and empowerment come from cultivating self-reliance and taking ownership of our own actions and decisions.
