Stephen Warley's article, "Feeling Stuck? Stop Saying This," dives into the common yet restrictive phrase "supposed to." Warley argues that this phrase often stems from external pressures and expectations, limiting personal freedom and self-expression. He suggests embracing internal motivations to redefine personal and professional life, encouraging readers to choose paths aligned with their true desires rather than societal norms.

Quotes to ponder:
"Even if they have the best of intentions, my wall immediately goes up. I’m deaf to whatever is said next."
"When 'suppose to' is used in this context it is an implied obligation. It’s duty-bound. It’s a command. It’s an expectation. It eliminates choice. It’s a dead end."
"Lifestyle design is all about aligning your purpose with your internal motivation."
