The Unpredictability of Life and Success.
Greetings friends!
Life presents us with various opportunities to excel. Those who recognize and seize these opportunities, often achieve success, while others let them slip away and later attribute their losses to luck or unfavorable circumstances.
I am one of those who have missed many opportunities granted to me by fate (or whatever term you may use). I aspired for success and encountered chances that could have transformed my future. However, I did not attain the level of success I desired. At times, I let opportunities slip away due to my ego, while on other occasions, setting my ego aside led to unfavorable outcomes for me. When I was inattentive, I lost chances, but even when I remained alert and acted swiftly, I still faced losses.
I believe there is no guaranteed formula for success in life. Sometimes, it feels as though life is playing a game with us, and no matter how hard we try or what actions we take, setbacks seem inevitable. It is also inversely true for those who get success without trying hard. There is no clear formula of success. However, this could also be attributed to randomness at a fundamental level. Consider flipping a coin—while the probability of landing on heads or tails is equal, we cannot predict with certainty what the next outcome will be. The same event may yield different results each time, highlighting the inherent uncertainty of the world.
This unpredictability also applies to financial decisions. A stock or cryptocurrency may appear promising, with all signs pointing toward success, yet upon investing, it may fail. Conversely, a random investment may yield significant profits. The world does not operate on absolute certainties and there is no definitive right or wrong in many aspects of life.
Life is full of uncertainties, and success does not always follow a predictable path. While effort and awareness are essential, external factors and randomness play a significant role. Instead of fixating on absolute success or failure, one must embrace adaptability and resilience. Learning from experiences and maintaining a balanced approach can help navigate life's unpredictable nature and allowing us to make the most of the opportunities that come our way.
