According to chaos theory, the universe is constantly moving to a state of disorder or entropy. It is constantly branching out and becoming more and more complex. Each decision you make will have an impact on the rest of your life; Regardless of how minuscule these actions may seem at the time. This can be best illustrated by the butterfly effect which states that small changes now can have a large impact later. The classic metaphor is based around how a hurricane can be effected by a butterfly flapping it’s wings several weeks earlier.

The difficult part is understanding how your actions today will influence your tomorrow. Truth be told you can never be one hundred percent positive how your actions will bend the path your life will follow. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. If we knew where life was going beforehand, there would be no surprises. A life absent of surprises can be a mundane thing indeed. Embrace the unseen obstacles which any path will inevitably present you with. Remember that there can be no light without darkness.
Anything in your life could be any way else and it would have just as much value as it does now. You may be holding onto an idealist expectation of the path you think your life should take, and that’s just fine! I fully believe in dreaming big and never relenting. But just know that wherever you end up, it is exactly where you belong. And if you feel otherwise, do something about it.
The path your life takes really is swayed by the smallest of decisions. This is why it is so important to completely embody your morals. Decisions tend to be made in a domino style sequence, with one good decision leading to the next. Keep in mind that the same is true for bad decisions. If you stray from your morals once, it will be easier to do the next time around. Stay resolute and persist indefinitely for the path you crave.
In some cases you will look at your life and conclude that you are not on a favorable path. There is a very simple solution to this problem my friend! Simply change the choices you are making today and your life will change as well. It was a wise man who concluded that insanity could be defined by doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results.
The very act of reading this article has already had a profound impact on your life in ways that you may or may not ever notice. I urge you to push onwards into the world of knowledge, for it is the one form of currency which is always growing in value. Until next time, stay clever!
I was just wondering if you could let me know where you got the image from in this article (butterfly effect)? ant help would be greatly appreciated as hoping to use it? thanks
