The fastest way to find out if something works for you is to try it. Learn to move forward without certainty. Life doesn't come with a free trial period or a money-back guarantee if we're not satisfied with it.
There is no GPS to guide you on your journey. There is no step-by-step manual for you to become what you are meant to be.
Every day you are writing a story, the outcome and ending of which you cannot know or even dream of.
You can spend years theorizing, trying to plan every step, and preparing every move by studying all the possibilities and consequences, but until you make the decision to take the first step, all of this is nothing more than speculation and projection.
Life can only be understood by looking back, but it is only lived by looking forward.
We are led to believe that because we have truly understood a certain situation or fact, we will have to, in our next decision, move forward only when we are completely sure of what we are going to choose.
But that's not true. We'll never know. We'll never be completely sure.
This duality makes things a little more difficult for those who try to be as rational as possible.
Because when the time comes when you are sure, the moment when you must make a decision and take action has already passed.
Certainty is not an illusion.
It exists. But it should not play a decisive role in deciding what we are going to do. It must, of course, be taken into account. We cannot move forward with something when there is no certainty about anything. At the very least, there must be the will and the certainty that we want to take a risk and choose a certain path.
Even though the most certain and secure things in life can change in an instant, without warning, and without any possibility of avoiding or mitigating them.
Continue without certainty. Move forward without certainty.
Leave behind the need to control everything or know everything.
