"The Unfathomable Chasm is Pre-Eternal - unstirred by time, not bothered by Eternity. The Deep Calm of the Unfathomable Chasm never speaks. This Calm has turned into Silence. Within the Unfathomable Chasm, there is no footing, no support, no reliance, no resurrection, no revelation. In the Unfathomable Chasm, in Infinity, there is only a majestic Plentitude. The veritable Pathway represents vanishing into the Nothnik, into Infinity. If you knew Me, you would forskae even the Sun." Eleazar Harash ... |

Making right desicions when you don't have all the facts. ... Even the best decision doesn't yield the best outcome every time. There's always an element of luck that you can't control, and there's always information hidden from view. So the key to long-term success (and avoiding worrying yourself to death) is to think in bets: How sure am I? What are the possible ways things could turn out? What decision has the highest odds of success? Did I land in the unlucky 10% on the strategy that works 90% of the time? Or is my success attributable to dumb luck rather than great decision making?
