>>15198515Hi, I thought of something strange yesterday. Something I always heard is
>You can't control outcomes, you can't only control your actions. So, you should focus on your actions instead of worrying about the outcomes.And I thought it made sense but it never really clicked. Yesterday I really thought about it and noticed something.
So, whenever you take an action, you also have some preferred outcome in mind, right? Sometimes it's a specific outcome ("I want to have that job"), sometimes a more broad outcome ("I want to have any job"), but we always take actions for outcomes.
But the strange thing is these preferred outcomes are solely imagined. They only exist in your mind. So whenever you "fail" to accomplish something, you actually don't lose anything.
What do you think? You can also tell me I'm wrong or this topic is boring, it won't bother me.
