      Those who do not choose a direction are lost. It is far better to become something than to remain anything but become nothing.pic.twitter.com/BrDT0Ilqal

      This is despite all the genuine limitations and disappointments that becoming something entails. Everywhere, the cynic despairs, are bad decisions.

      But someone who has transcended that cynicism (or more accurately, replaced it with an even more profound doubt— that is, the doubt that doubt itself is an ultimately reliable guide) objects: the worst decision of all is none.

          Not making a choice is also making a choice, whatever you do (or dont) it is a choice with consequences. Not choosing is choosing not to make a choice but its still a choice right?

          This reminds me of the recent Michael Malice discussion on cynicism! You did a great job staying in your role during that interview! And to his credit, so did Michael, even though I had firm disagreements with some of his views

          could this be an accurate representation of the transition between Nietzsche's lion to child?

          I read this and thought of the Rush lyric: “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.” You can’t avoid making a bad decision by not making a decision, so make a decision on your direction and move

          Replying to @jordanbpeterson

          The 'no-decision' is not good, but all so comforting for some of us. I believe 'the pill' assisted me strongly, almost into 'apathy'. But you also know the 'security-syndrome' holds people back, people who aren't stuck on meds.

          The fact is that for many people choosing one path is not a simple matter. The sense of loss this entails may not be felt by some types, but too overwhelming for others. It’s more complex, otherwise this is what everyone would do instinctively.
