It is always true. A person is "enslaved" to his desires, which often push
him to preconsciously pick without any conscious or rational thought. And
with non-spiritual desires, mi sheyeish lo maneh, rotzeh masayim.

The only freedom a person really has is when a person commits to doing
what they were made to do.

Tir'u baTov!
