• Curiosity Over Certainty

  Do not assume, just because something has worked for you, that you are correct.

  You may simply be lucky.

  Or you just might not have come across the right obstacle.

  You can always learn more.

  There is always room for growth.

  Remain open to the possibility that you might be wrong.

  By doing so, life opens up to you.

  Instead of being closed off to life’s possibilities, you give yourself permission to encounter new ideas and experiences.

  Do not limit yourself by assuming you have it all figured out.

  Life is full of mysteries that are only available to the curious, not the certain.

• The Certainty Of Uncertainty

  You never really know how things are going to work out.

  This is true whether you do something or you do nothing.

  There is just as much uncertainty in the paralysis of fear as there is in the action of courage.

  There is no reason, therefore, to do nothing unless doing nothing is the most desirable thing to do.

  Life can go terribly wrong whether you are brave or you are a coward, so you may as well be brave.

  Do that which frightens you.

  Pursue that which fulfills you.

  Seek meaning, purpose, and truth.

  Do not allow uncertainty to steal away your opportunities.

• Courage And Uncertainty

  Courage and uncertainty go hand in hand.

  If the results of your actions were guaranteed, you would not need courage.

  Courage is necessary precisely because you do not know how things will work out.

  Of course risk should be mitigated whenever possible and to whatever degree possible, but you cannot live courageously and avoid risk altogether.

  To live courageously, you must step into the unknown with your head up, chest out, and eyes open, ready for battle because courage does not guarantee ease or comfort.

  The only thing courage guarantees is change.

• Fooled By Certainty

  It is easy to be fooled into compromise by the promise of certainty.

  This is especially true if we are not firm in our convictions.

  Doubt leaves room for temptation to creep in and to take us off of our path.

  But no one can promise us certainty, or at least they cannot promise permanence.

  It is a fool’s bargain, therefore, to trade our destiny for someone else’s false promise of certainty.
