The insight emphasizes the power of mindset, highlighting that everything we do is a choice and not an obligation. The speaker suggests that changing the mindset from 'I have to do something' to 'I choose to do something' can profoundly impact one's physiological and emotional response.

The speaker advocates for asking this question frequently as a means of self-reflection.
