So sad you're living your life based around things that haven't happened yet
What a horribly pessimistic view on the world
Discussion
We are all guilty of this, why is it automatically pessimistic? What if you’re living your life based on a possible positive thing that hasn’t happened yet?
This was meant to be a response to another post. Not sure what happened here.
Either way, I agree with you. We are all guilty of this.
But personally I'd much rather live life based on positive hypotheticals than negative ones.
Because if neither really exist, why not choose the positive route?
I heard an interesting conversation on Nostr about this when I first joined like 6months ago. wish I could find it.
Some people are really good at mapping out the possibilities and assigning some probability and how to plan around them.
I'm sure some people will think it's better not to plan and just live every day.
A lot of successful people seem to live each day as it comes, but who knows if deep down they are reflexively planning and they just don't say it.
