It's a mentality that seeks validation. The individual builds a certain degree of knowledge and skills due to various reasons. Then, instead of consistently improving them, the person begins to see...

A study found that choice had an apparent influence on decision-making. In the studies subjects learned more when they had a free choice and when the choice gave a higher reward.
However, when participants were forced to select a specific choice, they were less invested in the outcomes, similar to a child mindlessly practicing to please a parent.
When people can make a free choice, they embrace positive or negative outcomes that confirm they were right.
Studies show that this tendency persists in both poor and rich conditions. This means the brain is primed to learn with a bias linked to our freely chosen actions. The brain learns differently and more quickly from free choices than forced ones.

The physical world is interacting with our actions, not our internal plans and intentions.
We cannot shape society, or help people just by having noble intentions, without action.
We treat people in certain ways and then justify the same. You are judged by what you do, and not for the reasons you give.
If our treatment isn't right, no amount of justification will serve any purpose.
