Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes in life, people might feel held back or unsure if others will allow them to do something. This statement is about having the courage and determination to pursue your goals regardless of others' opinions or permissions. For example, think of a person who wants to start their own business. Instead of worrying whether their family or friends will approve, they focus on their own abilities and push forward to make it happen. It's about believing in yourself and not letting anyone or anything stand in your way. If someone tells you that you can't do it, instead of getting discouraged, you become even more determined to succeed. This mindset helps people achieve great things because they don't rely on the approval of others; they take control and make their own path.
