Infinite & Finite

It is typical of modern man to avoid any and all responsibility, but this attitude is a denial of reality. In reality, we have major choices to make that come with major responsibility. What career will you pick? Who will you become? How will you spend your limited time?

Many modern people avoid answering these questions, leaving their minds to stare endlessly into the infinite void of possibilities until they are paralyzed by anxiety.

The second typical response is conformity. Conformity is to put the reasonability of choice on the world, it is to let others make the most major choices. "Oh I need a career to choose well, what do my parents say? What does my guidance counselor say?".

It is these people who chose the finite who have the hardest midlife crises. One day they wake up and realize that they are not living their life, that they have slowly slipped into living a life envisioned for them by others.

So if we can't avoid the choice and we can't put the responsibility on other people, then what must we do?

We must own our responsibility and make the choice for ourselves. Only by doing this can we truly become ourselves, can we truly make a choice that is right for us.

It is good to remember that you will never have some sort of epiphany where it all makes sense and the perfect decision is bestowed upon you, instead you must trust your intuition and make the choice.

"Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become." - Steve Jobs
