Why Does Uncertainty Make Us So Uncomfortable?
The surprising thing is that uncertainty is a source of immense power that most people never use.
Avoiding Uncertainty
It may seem a strange question to ask in today's uncertain world. But what's surprising is that uncertainty is a source of immense power that most people never use.
Why does uncertainty bother us? Because we fear losing control. Yet, uncertainty isn't a void to be avoided; it's a space where we can discover our inner strength.
According to British author Aldous Huxley, each of us is born with a "holistic mind." Over time, however, this mind becomes narrowed by our habits, fears, and stereotyped thoughts. We begin to see life only in fragments: Our minds remain in one place, our bodies in another. In reality, however, mind, body, and emotions are a single whole.
In our daily lives, we constantly repeat the same phrases: "I like this, I don't like that." Our thoughts, preferences, fears, and past experiences trap us in a repetitive cycle. We make change difficult and resist innovation because the unknown terrifies us.
But uncertainty is the gateway to creativity, discovery, and renewal. Every "now" is a fresh moment from which something new can emerge. And to truly be present in that moment requires liberation from the shadow of the past or the anxiety of the future.

Embrace creativity.
Learn to say, "That's not me anymore" to the old stories that appear in your mind.
When you find yourself in the past or future, breathe. Return to the present.
