"指導者に自分の進路を指示させる人は、廃棄場に引かれていく壊れた船である。"
— Ayn Rand

Simplified Meaning:
When a person allows someone else to decide their path in life, they are like a broken-down car being pulled to a junkyard. This means they're not in control of their own destiny and are just following orders without thinking for themselves. Imagine a student who always does what their friends want, never making their own plans or decisions. They might end up unhappy and miss out on things they really care about because they're not considering their own interests and goals. Taking charge of your own life means making your own choices and not just doing what others tell you to do. By doing this, you become more confident, and happier, and truly live a life that reflects who you are.
