How you remove or reduce others power/dominance/influence over over you. - Don't take favor from them, but trade with them. - Don't depend directly on them for your needs. - Negotiate, bargain and Trade. You should be able to decide the price. Create contacts with mutual agreement that doesn't require force. - No favor, no politics. - Nobody gives you power. Only you can make your position stronger. - As they say, power has it's natural tendency to centralise, and there is no power vacuum. The more power among the individuals, the less power with the centralised powers. - A more stable society and world require more number of strong individuals. I never need a penny from anyone to be specific, that's why I just chill more.😄☕🎈👍.
