[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=3) They'll call you robots behind your backs. [0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=5) "Oh, she doesn't think about anyone but herself," they'll say. [0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=7) You'll get compliments, and you'll say, "Thank you." [0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=11) You can't help someone else before putting on your own oxygen mask. [0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=14) Without saving your own life, you can't save your mother's, your father's, your ancestors', your spouse's or your child's life. [0:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=18) Without making yourself happy and fulfilled, you can't make another person happy and fulfilled. You'll take care of yourself first. [0:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=25) You'll develop discipline. Your life will have structure. [0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=28) Not this, "I'm just going with the flow, I'm in my soft girl era," "I'm doing some 70-step skincare routine." [0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=35) With these things, with these things, it is impossible for you to attain something that will make you happy and fulfilled in a sustainable way. [0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=41) You're not Danish, you're not Swedish, You're not Norwegian. [0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=44) You're a Turkish woman living in Turkey. [0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=47) What life will bring you when you go with the flow is not a sustainable and fulfilling standard of living. [0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=53) You can't tie your prospects, your dreams, your future to someone else's conscience, whether they'll get confused someday or whether they'll love you for the rest of your life. [1:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=62) I'm not just talking about husbands or men here. [1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=65) Whoever your mother, father, or sibling may be, you have to take the wheel of your own life.

[1:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=76) There will be things you know well.

[1:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=82) You'll read books. You'll stop fixating on yourself. [1:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=85) You'll throw away that scale, with your ass, your head, your weight, whatever. [1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=88) You'll get fit, you'll work out. You'll have discipline.

You'll do these things because you love yourself. [1:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=95) Okay? You'll set strict rules for yourselves. [1:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=99) What categories will your strict rules have?

[1:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=103) Yes, I am," you'll say. For people trying to enter your life, you'll have a list. [1:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=107) You'll have rules on that list. This list will be in writing. [1:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=110) When someone tries to enter your life, you'll check whether they comply or not. If they don't, you'll eliminate them. [1:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=117) They'll say, "But every relationship is different, every person is different. [2:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=120) Get to know me, maybe you'll change your rules." You'll say, "I don't have time to get to know you. [2:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=123) I trust my rules. Thank you very much." You'll send them away. [2:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=128) You'll have discipline. You'll learn to say no. [2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=131) They'll tell you to come, you won't go. They'll tell you to drink, you won't drink. [2:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=135) They'll ask if you'll try it. You'll say no. [2:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=137) You'll learn how to earn money and hold on to it.

[2:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=149) You'll learn that you can't afford to just go with the flow in life. [2:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=152) Friends, only dead fish let themselves be carried along by the current. [2:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=156) Living animals, living fish, are those who can swim against the current. [2:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=163) You will be among those who can swim against that current. [2:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=165) They'll call you machines, monsters, soulless. [2:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=169) When young men do the same thing, they call them ambitious young men chasing their dreams, who know what they want. [2:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=175) So you'll take what they say to you as a compliment, and you'll thank them. [2:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=179) And you'll never abandon your discipline, girls. [3:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=182) You will never allow your rules or boundaries to be violated by anyone. [3:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/aY7l89ZClqsT/en/self-discipline-boundaries-and-financial-independence-for-women?t=186) Take good care of yourselves. I love you.
