Ludi, help me out here. I guess I'm in need of some psychological counseling or something.
I have a problem with planning for the future. I can't get motivated to do anything about it for one very simple reason: None of us know what's going to happen.
How can we make plans for a future that is so completely uncertain? Let me restate an analogy I've posted before: It's like we know we're going on a trip, but we have no idea when we're leaving, we don't know how we're going to travel, we don't know what we'll encounter on the way, we don't know how long the trip will take, we don't know if anyone is going with us, and we don't even know where we're going.
How do you know what to pack?
See what I mean? All the things that you and the folks in the planning forum are doing are great on their own, but how do we know what we're really going to need to be doing when we have no clue whatsoever how all this is going to play out?
The future is just a question mark. Anything can happen. How do you prepare for the unknown?
