Can a man be free if he is not yet a master of himself?

[Blessing Otuokere]

One cannot get freedom until he has attained mental mastery. Only when you have complete control over your life, free from outside interference, can you be a master. The mind is the root of all things.

[Jackson ONeil]

If a man is still a slave to himself; then, he's still enslaved to things around him both physical and spiritual. So a man can truly be free when he becomes a master of himself.

[Bettny Andrade]

That's a great point you raise. I think it will depend on that since, like all existing things, they have their correspondence principle and nature always has a balance.

Not all people are born to do business and be their own boss, just as there are people with employer and entrepreneur potential, there are also people who were born to be employees. That is where the difference derives.

[Chris Rich Nwaka]

I believe the problem is that the majority of people are unwilling to serve. I think that in order to become a master, one must first serve. Nowadays, relatively few people desire employment due to the idea of taking directions from others.
