🧠 Low Agency vs High Agency - Who Is Really In Control?

LIP #228
Mar 20, 2025

Most people today live with low agency - they react to life, follow the crowd, and blame outside things when stuff goes wrong. They are basically pawns in someone else's game.

High agency people are totally different:

  • They do not take no for a final answer
  • They do not wait for permission
  • They make things happen through willpower and action

Here is the truth - most failures in life are not about skill. They are about psychology and will. With 60% of life spent online, it takes real courage to think for yourself.

Beware of the passive consumption trap - spending all day reading and scrolling without producing anything real. True growth only comes from doing, not just watching.
