Are You Facing Uncertainty? That’s Great News!
The outcome could be far greater than you can imagine
“Uncertainty is a confident place to be.
It is the need for certainty that leads to atrocity”
-Neil Strauss
Think about that for a moment. What does that mean to you?
To me, it kind of reaffirms the way I’ve grown to see life. We don’t know what is going to happen, and I’m OK with that.
Uncertainty is uncomfortable.
The fear that’s generated by uncertainty is what leads some people to desire authoritarianism.
The personal cost is the abdication of personal power. Without personal power, we don’t have to take responsibility for our lives. And if we don’t take responsibility for our lives, we don’t have the power to control our destiny.
It’s not manifestation. It’s mathematics.
I can understand the appeal for the person who has the mindset of having no power to control the outcome of their lives. But I’m not that person, and I never will be. I will not let fear of the unknown guide my decisions.
You see, I don’t look at uncertainty as a negative. I look at it as a positive.
