The only thing predictable about life is its unpredictability. Anyone can be anything. You can be everything

True or false? Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why?

 

[Forever Sleep]

Yes, life is unpredictable but, it isn't our oyster- as the saying goes. We can't achieve everything we put our minds to. We are naturally limited. Intellectually, physically, financially etc. We can of course, still work to overcome our natural deficits and some may do well despite the odds. Others who have most things going for them can still fail. But I suppose what is certain is- if you don't try, there's no hope of succeeding. But honestly- it irritates me when people say: 'You can be anything you want to be.'

I'm pretty sure I can't be a unicorn tamer or the prime minister of Australia. I can't even manage to be a good person.

One can try but they will just face the reality, in theory everything is possible until u consider one's capabilities and environment, sure even the smallest of possibilities exist and there is no guarantee that one lucky happening wont happen however if one relies on pure luck They wont be able to get far, atleast speaking practically, and even if one gets lucky and wins that sweet One milion for example They still will have to know how to handle this kind of money.
Speaking differently though, it cant be said we cant achieve the goals we would want to achieve, only reality is our obstacle.
