" Doubt is an uncomfortable condition, but certainty is a ridiculous one. "

We want our life to be predictable. Every step of life, we want some certainty that everything is going to be good.

Doubt is an uncomfortable state where no one wants to be. It is because we can't be patient in life to stay with confusion and try to analyze it. But not knowing what's coming can be powerful as there is always a magic element to a situation. But being certain about the outcomes of everything is ridiculous because there are no other possibilities and everything is planned prior.

You must be open to new opportunities and perspectives in life with the doubts you have in your mind.
