The author believes that there is a strong correlation between what we reject and our identity. In the end what we accept and also what we reject is what defines us. In the most logical way, this means that if we avoid rejecting anything can be translated as avoiding any form of conflicts and confrontation which ultimately leads to a very subtle form of entitlement. We already know from the previous chapter that entitlement is a poisonous trait as it doesn't spur the desire to grow. Manson also denies the idea that freedom is the key to happiness. This is because when we refer to this state we actually refer to a moment in which we are overloaded with options and we end up suffering from what is known as the paradox of choice. Having more is not always better because as a result of a multitude of opportunities we tend to question our rejections. The example which is presented in the book is the one in regard to having the possibility to move to a country out of twenty other possibilities. By choosing this, we forfeit other options which lead to the terrifying question which will haunt us for years "What if?”. In order to present better the practical application of this information, he reminds us of toxic relationships. Those are based especially on the feeling of entitlement to solve the partners' problem or blame the partner for any difficulties.
