How much of your life have you freely chosen? 00:00:01
In your life, there are some things that you didn't choose, 00:00:04
that you found, that you cannot change. 00:00:08
For example, your body, or the country you were born in, 00:00:11
or the language you speak, or the family. 00:00:16
You didn't choose these things, you just found them. 00:00:20
They are part of what you find around you. 00:00:23
On the other hand, there are other things that you decided. 00:00:27
You chose your friends, or you can choose them. 00:00:31
You can leave them and find new ones. 00:00:33
You choose your partner, your boyfriend or your girlfriend. 00:00:36
And if you want, you can change. 00:00:40
And you choose the kind of university studies that you want to do. 00:00:43
That is your decision. 00:00:47
So in your life, there are things that depend on you, others that don't. 00:00:49
The Spanish philosopher José Ortega y Gasset described this saying, 00:00:54
a very famous sentence. I quote, I am I and my circumstance. What does this mean? Ortega meant 00:00:59
that in your life there is a part that you found that you can't change, that is part of your reality 00:01:12
but you haven't decided. This is what he called your circumstance. So the country you live in, 00:01:20
the society you live in, the language you speak, or the family you live in, are all parts of your 00:01:26
circumstance, something that is in your life, but you didn't decide. You just found it there. 00:01:32
But there is also another part. I am I. So there is a part that is my own free will, 00:01:40
my decisions, my freedom to decide what to do. Of course, in my decisions, I must take into 00:01:49
account my circumstance. I cannot decide to do whatever I want. There are limits. My circumstance 00:01:55
sets limits to what I can freely decide. Nevertheless, there is always a margin to 00:02:01
decide. There is freedom, because human beings are moral. We can decide freely what to do. 00:02:08
so a part of my life depends on me that's why the word autonomy is so important in ethics 00:02:15
autonomy means the ability of giving your own rules to yourself the opposite word is heteronomy 00:02:26
you are autonomous when you decide by yourself what you want to do which are your rules of 00:02:37
behavior you're heteronymous when other people decide the rules for you for 00:02:42
example a child is heteronymous because their family told them what to do what 00:02:49
is right what is wrong when you grow up you become adult you decide by yourself 00:02:55
what you think is right or wrong you have your own norms of conduct so we say 00:03:02
that you are autonomous 00:03:07
