As a famous fictional Captain once said "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness. That is life." . Assuming a group of people do all the "proper" steps to achieving the same "success", the only thing that will determine the winner is just luck - which I guess is just a simplification of a large collection of factors that we have little to no control over. It is an upsetting thought, but it is just true. Hard work, intelligence, dedication and all the good stuff are of course very important. But there over 7 billion people on this planet. So it is simply statistically likely that there are hundreds of people who have all done everything humanly possible to achieve "success". Hundreds of people who have done everything "right". At least for me, I think the best we can do is just change this perception of a singular type of "success" that cultures have developed. Once we remove things like "You need this big of a salary" or "You need this luxury item" or "You need to be employed or live in this particular place", then a lot more of us can experience this "success" that a lot of people seem to chase. Once you make enough money to support yourself reasonably well, the rest of your time should ideally be spent enjoying life (as long as it does not come at the expense of others). Because we only live once, and our lives could be cut short at any moment regardless of how prepared we are.

My black swan event is that I got a diagnosis of pure O OCD. I was doing great in my studies, in college getting good grades, and everything was going fine. Then suddenly got the shock of my life; at that time I was not able to handle the shock. My OCD attack's intensity increased, I had 24x7 heightened anxiety with waves of panic attacks, lost 5 kg within 2-3 days, was not able to eat, I thought I will go mad. But now I am able to accept my condition and working on it. The worst part is you can not trust your own brain. It sucks but I know many are going the similar or even worst . Power and love to all.

The part that stuck with me was the "knowledge that dont change behavior is useless, but knowledge that changes behavior loses its relevance " 7:19 , in one way it means you can only be very useful once, then just useful and finally mundane . One thing worst than a black swan would be a blue swan , but we can only see in shades of black and white , something lurking around, we just dont see it as it truly is , that happens a lot during the human history, people had all the things needed for something, it just never clicked for them , like the famous " we put man on the moon , before putting wheels in the luggage ".

Omg yes!! This is an information contradiction that haunts me constantly, at least in the way I tend to think of it. We don't know shit until we need the information, then we have it, but most likely, don't need it anymore, or for the foreseeable future at least. We try to learn from past success scenarios, but those aren't applicable any more, if ever.

"the people who failed don't tend to write memoirs." reminds me of "history is written by the winners." the power of overlooking the obvious and mundane is in itself also overlooked. at the end of the day, though, I've lived with disordered anxiety my whole life and I've learned that you just take what you can learn and keep moving forward. if you dwell so much on the fears of "the next black swan event" you'll be paralyzed and you could argue your preparedness is wasted. and when we learn from history and prevent the known black swan events, that's still valuable. that's still a good thing. just because there will always be another problem doesn't mean the problems you solved don't matter.

I had fears in my mind before then, like a forest fire (as I lived in a mountanious village at the time) or being in a plane crash and yet another very rare event did happen, just not the one I had feared or considered really.

Good example of a black swan for me came earlier this year when Texas got hit by a snowstorm. Texas rarely gets snow, so the energy companies weren't prepared for the snow to shut down their operations, which led to an energy shortage. So for a week, they had rolling blackouts in a lot of energy grids. On top of living in a freezing house with no power for a week, two pipes burst in my house, leading to a lot of water damage. So, almost our entire house had to have damages fixed, and we're still out of our house for those fixes today.

In his next book, Antifragile, he asks how high we should build a dam? The usual answer is to build it to the highest ever recorded water level. Yet, before that water level was recorded, the previous high was lower than that, so building the dam as high as the highest known water level is vulnerable to a higher, as-yet-not-known water level.

@@lifecloud2 not just rare, unprecedented 😃. If this is an interesting thought train to you, then I recommend Antrifragile. The premise is that people commonly think that the opposite of fragile is solid, resistant, strong. The author says that these are not opposites of fragile, but really in the middle. Fragile is the tendency to break under stress. He says that the opposite of that is not to just not break under stress. The opposite is to become stronger under stress. Working out and growing bigger muscles, getting sick and recovering, are examples of being antifragile. I like the concept, and I think it evokes useful life philosophies.
@lifecloud2
@lifecloud2 2 года назад
@@JesseHelton Ah, the old Nietzche idea: "That which does not kill me...etc." You say that fragile is the tendency to break under stress, and to me in order to grow strong from this you have to break first. How about the opposite of fragile being more about the ability to adapt ... being flexible, bendable, negotiating the stress instead of breaking to find your strength? And the idea of the opposite of love being apathy is one I like. It sort of betrays a middle ground too. To me, the problems with the world we know these days is that the people involved tend to think in binary terms (which drives me nuts). You are either for me or against me. This doesn't allow for the middle ground. Maybe the solution here is finding the middle ground, the gray area that connects the two extremes.

There's an amazing book called "Epitaph of a Small Winner" written by a guy called Machado de Assis in 1881, from Brazil. Although written in a totally different era, it is surprisingly modern feeling in its writing. Most books from then are very flowery and descriptive but this is so blunt, hilarious, intelligent and perceptive. It's also a short book, and the chapters are literally 1-5 pages at most. It's written from the perspective of a guy who already died and is telling you about his life as a general failure, who was born into a well-to-do family and had a good life, but really accomplished nothing much of his own accord. While he doesn't have a huge downfall like a total failure, he doesn't rise to any real goals, and in the end has sort of cruised through life to end up pretty much where he started. While not a memoir I think the writer drew on a lot of his own life experiences for it. Definitely unique and ahead of it's time by about 100 years. It also has one of the best chapters of writing ever in it, I'd say close to on par with The Grand Inquisitor by Dostoevsky, where the main character is delirious in bed and has an encounter with Lady Death/The God of Death. I can't stress how intense and beautifully written it is. Machado de Assis is considered like the Shakespeare of Brazil, he is incredibly famous there.

It's the only book I ever bought and almost finished. My understanding is that a black swan is an event which occurs as a result of a blind spot in our perception about the past and future. A key point he makes in illustrating the black swan is that history progresses in leaps and bounds. And these are all black swans. We believe we saw them coming by looking at the series of events that lead up to it and fool ourselves into thinking it was expected. But in actual fact its always a surprise. And he calls it the hindsight fallacy. The idea is we live in a constant illusion of undertanding the likely course of the future when infact this is totally false. And when this fact is proven true time and again through history which fail to learn this fact by explaining away the past once it's already happened. Maintaining the illusion of certainty. Continuing the blindspot to allow further blackswans to emerge. Blackswans can be both good and bad but always have a high impact and change the course of history. It's bolder than it seems. He is saying history is like a tree with many possible branches and the course that it takes is infact mostly determined by black swans. And that they emerge because we are ignorant to how it all works. Ofcourse in the times we are living in it is obviously more of a cautionary point than anything else.

When I worked with USAF intelligence in the 1980's a 911 type event was a continual nightmare as cells were broken all the time. the years of work that went into preventing such an event had gone on for at least 20 years at that time. Multiple events had been thwarted before the 911 scenario was carried out. Tom Clancy novels are full of such scenarios predicted by various intelligence agencies. It only seemed to be a black swan event to those outside the community who had warned of this for many years. Most people live in blissful ignorance of how many times life changing events, and society changing events are avoided.

We did prepare for it lookup Event 201 which took place 5 months before the pandemic funded by WHO and Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Spars 2025, Operation Lockstep. They predicted what would happen and yet somehow we were 'unprepared' anyway. Bill Gates literally said they hadn't planned it on TV despite funding Event 201. Use DuckDuckGo to find the truth.

For all the people out there that have trouble with their own thoughts. Engage them, don't let them affect you, and give yourself about an hour or two to do nothing. Don't listen to music, don't watch tv, shut off your phone. Just sit and relax and embrace the boring. After you sorted all your thoughts out you will be so relieved because it becomes quiet and calm forever. I'm not a specialist, I'm an introvert analyzing people and myself my whole life. If you can build up just a bit of trust and you have problems with your thoughts (sleep, anxiety, restlessness) Then I highly recommend to not avert your thoughts of being productive and let your brain and emotions work on themselves, even if it feels uneasy Have a great day

"Extremistan and Mediocristan" A factory chicken which lives 1000 days of bliss really would be an outlier. I know that's not the point, but in the example our 'poor' chicken really was a special case for the farmer, since most of his pals were sent to the 'other' side of the farm by the 50th day, not the 1000th. My other reaction is that in our world of 'Extremistan', the predictable disasters we fail to prepare for aren't exclusively a sign of how poorly humanity intuitively understands probability. Overdue Earthquakes increase in probability every day, while our tendency is to become more complacent - sure. But the 'winners' of 'Extremistan' also constrain (lobby) governments and society from acting rationally to such threats.
