It means taking responsibility, making conscious decisions, and living with the consequences. After all, while giving up control may be comfortable, it could eventually lead you to a place you never wanted to be.  <br\/><br\/>We\u2019ll talk about why so many people prefer to stay in the passenger seat, why true self-determination also involves risk, and why it makes a difference whether you base your life on what you truly want or just on what you supposedly need.<br\/><br\/>After all, in the end, it\u2019s about more than just professional success.
