When I was leaving an organization I had worked in, my boss wrote this to me as a piece of advice for the future – “Most things in the world are not black or white. They are gray; then we choose our shade of Gray”
What he had written was profound. Many times you may know something but when someone says it to you in such simple words, your appreciation of the phenomenon grows manifolds. In that one single sentence, he had imparted the mantra to manage expectations and reality.
‘Uncertainty’ could be the reality and ‘Certainty’ the noble goal.
Expectation and Reality may or may not converge.
The wise are equally comfortable with both scenarios.
