Between certainty and uncertainty - Reflection

in Project HOPE3 years ago

Hello everyone, today I would like to talk about something that most probably everyone knows, yes, but the detail is that we do not always talk about it openly, I think it is partly because we do not like to assume that despite our efforts to channel our life to a certain goal, reality tells us that they are not always going to be fulfilled, at least not as we had thought.

Let's talk about uncertainty, it is something we have to live with, there is no way of knowing exactly what is going to happen to us, nor where we will be, I can say it from experience... Years ago I had some very particular and specific goals, but for various reasons life changed, and me with it.

I can't say for better or worse, it just changed. Since before studying at the university I had things very clear, and I took them for granted, at least in my mind, and at some point everything was very much on track to the fulfillment of those goals planned since adolescence, however, everything, because of the socio-economic context forced me to make drastic decisions and look for options very different from those previously conceived.

The uncertainty of our destiny could fill us with anxiety if we do not know how to channel it, so I always think that although everything is subject to change we must have a purpose, a goal that is what moves us in a specific direction, that makes us get up every morning to work for it.

I am not saying that goals should be solely and exclusively oriented to the attainment of wealth, because learning to play an instrument can be one goal, losing weight can be another, learning a new language or a certain skill, another, so I do not think there are excuses for not knowing what to do, we should always ask ourselves what we want, we will find answers and these will serve to guide us, to have that much needed focus in our lives.

Therefore, I simply believe that we will always be in total uncertainty, and even if we have very firm plans and purposes, they will be subject to changes motivated by different reasons, many of them beyond our control, those that we cannot control, but that in the same way make us think and rethink our goals in search of better decisions.

But we must continue, without stopping, unless it is to have a better vision of where we are headed.

hello @josevas217,
when you are an entrepreneur security is not something that motivates your actions as nothing offers a permanent guarantee, what should motivate you are the goals you set for yourself and with the achievement of some goals you add others to the list of areas you wish to develop, for example if money is no longer an issue, a goal to consider is to improve your health through exercise or learn to paint to develop a new skill, remember that we are mortal creatures, so seeking security in a system that is constantly moving is foolish, I believe that more than security we should seek the opportunity to grow and achieve goals while we are alive.

To begin with we are changing human beings, with emotions and needs that vary according to age, environment, emotions, and especially maturity, you should keep in mind that always the purposes or goals as you call them will vary and that does not have to create anxiety.
We live in a changing world, and it will always be like that, but imagine?
thanks for sharing

I am not particularly anxious about what may or may not happen, but I know there are many who are.
The world will continue to change, that's just the way it is.

Uncertainty is something that sometimes wears us down because we are not sure what will happen to us. The truth is that every day we transform ourselves and ideally it is to feel better... personally, today I know that the most certain thing about my life is that it will come to an end, which should not frighten me but rather indicate to me that I should live to the fullest... good article

Thank you for commenting.
The best is yet to come, so they say. Much of it depends on us, and some of it is out of our control.

Greetings friend, certainly we all make plans, and we believe that it only depends on us that they come true, but the reality is that our plans must be flexible, because although it depends on us to achieve them, the context in which they are greatly influences the way to achieve them, as well as our maturity, when we overcome a stage sometimes we realize that that was not what really suited us or we learn that it is better to go another way to achieve the same goal, I think what happens to us when we make plans is that we forget to include uncertainty and make them more flexible so as not to get frustrated in their achievement.

Thank you for commenting.
You mentioned something important, which also has to be learned to manage and goes hand in hand with uncertainty, such as frustration.
You have to learn to manage all of that as well.

Hi, one need to understand life is full of uncertainty, but understanding the principles of not giving up to life challenges will help build and make us even more better and stronger towards achieving a better tomorrow thanks for sharing an amazing piece.

That's right, the most important thing is to get better and better, and to understand that we can give more, as long as we don't give up.

Greetings @josevas217, uncertainty is something that affects us all, some people more than others, depending on the paths that life will present, but we should not change the goal, maybe on the way we doubt, and we have to change our path, but I'm sure your goal is still firm, and in time you will get it, you had to make drastic decisions, but that will take you sooner or later to your ultimate goal, thanks for sharing these thoughtful articles.

I have changed the goal slightly, or maybe not so much, at least the way he looks for it will be different, but I am stubborn, so I will insist.

One of the things that can paralyze us and make us feel disoriented is uncertainty, that fear of not knowing what will happen if we assume or make certain decisions is what sometimes prevents us from taking a path other than the one we had planned.

The problem is that circumstances change, opportunities are different and if we do not overcome the initial fear and adapt to changes it is very possible to miss great opportunities, it is not easy, but definitely we must constantly fight and overcome our own fears and uncertainties. if we want to be more and more happy,

Thank you very much for your very reflexive post my dear friend @josevas217

Life is about making permanent decisions, I think that seeing it this way it is easier to assume what comes after each one of them.
Thanks for commenting

Hello @josevas217 You have touched on a very real topic, we always have to live with uncertainty in everything we do, however we continue to make plans, because that is how it should be as you say, despite the uncertainty we have to set goals and work for it trusting that what happens is the best....greetings

Their is very thin line between certainly and uncertainty we need to take care of this thin life if we are able to manage this small gap we can achieve everything in life and we will be always happy in our life's. A person with a goal in his mind and have determination will always get success.
