Is it that you can never move because you do not know what is before you? The majority of us are similar: we are always in the trap of trying to make our future predictable by speculating, and speculating, yet we are not gaining ground. The distinction between the passive waiters of the manifestation and active designers of it is the fundamental aspect of the dichotomy between the spectators of life and that of the creators.

The greatest impediment to an individual development is the prediction paradox. And when we are overly concerned with determining consequences we abdicate our agency to external influences. The psychological disorder has a tendency of exhibiting itself in three significant sub-problems:
Cognitive Overload: The thinking effort of calculating all the possible situations of what might have occurred robs one of the the mental resources required to create the actual execution of those situations.
The Delusion of Certainty: Predicting is one that gives us a false sense of safety and leave us hopeless because the vagaries of reality always come into play.
Sucklessness in Analysis Paralysis: We are expecting to have the optimal market environment or the appropriate cue of the universe that clarity is not a prerequisite but an outcome of action.

Strategic Incrementalism: Success achieved is rarely done on one occasion and as a consequence of micro-wins. Focus on the 24-hour cycle.
Resilience Engineering: It is not anticipating the failure; it is creating a system that will be able to endure the failure.
Locus of Control: The here is to focus all your attention on what you can control over, what your habits are, how you react, and how you work.
The transformation of what is going to happen ontologically? "What will I build?" is the trait of an actualized man. Even the present day is not something predictable, it is an uneven substance to be chiseled. The human agency represents the final point of decision to fill the position made by the creator.
