A short motivational video by Dr. Aziz reminding viewers that they are the authority in their own lives. He encourages ownership of decisions across domains (career, social life, relationships), advises using others' input intentionally, and emphasizes the right — and permission — to decide differently than experts.
Hey, I want to remind you that you are the authority. That's right. You are the authority in your life. You might know this already. You might see this in certain areas. Like you perceive yourself of that in your career or business, or maybe not there, but maybe in your social life, or maybe not there, but in a relationship, right? We have certain areas. We might, but maybe not. Maybe everywhere you're kind of doing the opposite, where you're deferring to others. You're looking to others, like, what do they think? What's the right way? What's the good way? What do you think? Is that okay? And if you are, you slipped back into that in any way, bring it back to you. You are the authority. And sure, you can get guidance from people. You can get their input. They might even know more than you about the subject. And great, ask them questions. But you want to take ownership for even that. What questions do you want to ask them? What information do you want to get from what their experience holds? And then ultimately you must decide, and you have the right to decide. And you can decide differently than what someone who has more experience is telling you to do, because you are the authority in your life.
