  None of us really enjoy being told what to do. Whether it's an emotion
• 0:05
  inside of us or it's a person outside of us, but none of us
• 0:08
  enjoy being told what to do. We're convinced or speaking for me, I'm
• 0:11
  convinced, but I bet you're convinced, and I know that you're convinced that
• 0:14
  once I can call my own shots, I'll call all the right shots.
• 0:19
  I mean, if I had that kind of money, that kind of margin,
• 0:21
  that kind of autonomy, if I had that kind of freedom, I
• 0:23
  would be so careful. I would not have done what they did. I
• 0:26
  wouldn't do what she did. I wouldn't do what they did. I wouldn't
• 0:28
  do what he did because I would protect that autonomy. And maybe that's true.
• 0:33
  Maybe that's true, but for that to be true, there is something
• 0:36
  you must do. So I to kind of get us started in this series,
• 0:40
  I wrote a little poem as it relates to not having anybody tell us
• 0:43
  what to do. Our need of supervision may someday come to an end if
• 0:47
  we silence the toxic voices that come from within. Thank you, thank you,
• 0:55
  thank you. Okay, yeah, here's the negative version, just to
• 0:58
  make sure you know where we're going Our need of supervision will never come to
• 1:03
  an end until we silence the toxic voices that come from within. Because the
• 1:08
  truth is, for all of us, we don't get in trouble because we
• 1:12
  won't take advice. Most of the time. We get in trouble because we
• 1:17
  take our own advice. We're going to discover together how much easier it can
• 1:22
  be to identify that bad advice that comes from within all of us.
