In *Pulling Your Own Strings*, Wayne Dyer advocated for total psychological freedom. He taught that most people live as victims of others' expectations. Freedom, he argued, is the refusal to be manipulated. It means setting boundaries and deciding how you will feel, regardless of how others treat you. He teaches that you cannot be free if you need someone else's permission to be happy.
"If you are afraid of what others think, you are a slave to their opinions."
"Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery. It takes strength to choose freedom."
"The ego is only an illusion, but a very influential one. Letting go of the ego’s need to be afraid is the first step toward freedom."
"Your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that."
"It’s never too late to have a happy childhood, because you are in charge of your thoughts now."
"You are not stuck where you are unless you decide to be."
