Do you have your life figured out?

Post Reply New Topic

You keep a pretty impressive schedule. I struggle to get to the gym before 7 am. If you're happy with your life, then why not keep what you've got?

I don't think that anyone fully knows what they're doing in life. We all have to improvise as we go, because there is so much we can't control and so much randomness. I was always taught that each individual should have a plan for life, but those plans rarely work out as expected for anyone. We just don't have the kind of control over our life events that would be required to consistently bring such plans to fruition.

There's the theoretical and the actual -
Theoretically I know exactly how I wanted things to go. Had many a very cohesive plan. Extremely well researched, developed, and thought out. But that was theory.
Things haven't turned out that way, and the current stalemate is far from figured out. I have no idea why I have been unable to make anything work in life, when I had such clear outlines.
My one autistic deviance is I hate routine. I get trapped and agitated. I have plans to take a wrecking ball to the stillness, but one never knows how that may (won't) work out, either ...

What I have reluctantly figured out is that life is too unpredictable to figure out.
