Description

Uncertainty is a powerful condition that we experience because we do not know what the future holds. Uncertainty means that we cannot make reliable predictions about the future. We face uncertainty when making decisions, and making decisions is inevitable. Through this book the authors have sought to find a balance between the desire for certainty, which does not exist, and the uncertainty, which is present in any analysis regarding the future and in any decision that we make. Uncertainty causes fear, and that fear paralyses our ability to make decisions. Uncertainty has three basic characteristics: uncertainty exists; uncertainty is a challenge and it can be tamed; by taming uncertainty, its power may be transferred to us. This book is easy to read and to understand, and it provides useful principles and guidance for making decisions regarding our future. The ideas exposed in this book help us reduce or eliminate our fear of uncertainty and recognize and take advantage of the opportunities uncertainty brings.
