It’s Not Working

Just because something isn’t working today doesn’t mean it will never work.

It doesn’t mean it is impossible.

It doesn’t even mean that this will always feel this way.

Often, this feeling either means “it’s been a while” or “this is new.”

Most of our biggest mistakes in judgment and prediction result from over-extrapolating from the present.

What’s happening today is not meaningless.

It is, however, temporary.
