You don’t know how it’s going to turn out.

You don’t know how to get there.

You don’t know if you should try it.

You don’t know when it will happen.

You don’t know how good or bad it will be.

But the giant secret, the flimsy fixings behind the ornate facade on this giant stage of life is that no one knows. Some have more data, or more education, or more connections, or more experience — but they don’t know either. They’re making it up like you.

Instead, try focusing on what you do know. Where are you? Who’s around you? What do you already have? What's working? What matters most?

You may not know what you want to know (yet), but you know what you need to know for today.

Start there.
