Stop seeking permission from others to believe you've changed. The speaker describes trying to prove himself to his father as self-imprisonment, a trap that keeps you waiting for someone else's forgiveness instead of claiming your own worth.

Don't let people make you feel that you have to show them you have changed. Nobody has the power over you but you. Don't give anybody the power to prove to them that you've changed. I've been there, I know that. There are mistakes in my life growing up that I spent my whole life trying to prove to my father that I was changed. That is being imprisoned. Sometimes you realize that there's a part of you feeling unworthy, unworthy of peace until others forgive you. Don't give anybody that power.
