“Hope is a dangerous thing.” So is doubt…
The ‘worst-case’ scenario is guaranteed to be the most improbable, as is the ‘best-case’…
Hope and doubt are the evil twins - equivalent opposites. And both tear me away from the reality of what I can control.
Hope lets go of responsibility and makes the outcome critically important. Hope puts me in the passenger seat. Hope disempowers.
Doubt does the same.
I can’t control the outcome, but I can control how I respond. So, I maintain faith in the process - *my* process - to wrap the uncertainty, to be indifferent to the outcome.
