Hello everyone, how are you all today? I don't know if it's just me but who else has given up on BCH? I have stopped checking the price for a while because I decided to just leave it and give it time to become stable but I was forced to check it earlier today after seeing the sudden dip in the price of my BCH in the wallet.
I got heartbroken seeing BCH hovering around $102 and threatening to break below $100. It was at that point I realized this is now our reality, we have to live with the way things are now coz with the way I am seeing it, it may probably take more than a year before things can get back to the way it was.
Anyway, I am not here to talk about BCH today as I have decided to take it off my mind. Today's topic is inspired by a post I saw on Twitter, I am glad I came across it because I didn't have anything else in mind for today 😆 well, let's go over to the main content.
What that tweet simply means is that you should never be predictable. This is a common phrase that I think most people understand, but it's also something that we rarely take seriously when put into practice. The fact is, we're programmed to be predictable. We're taught from birth that food comes only from this place or that place, for example, and it's hard to break that habit.
If you are very predictable, it's very likely that your enemies have already mastered your moves and will be waiting for you on the other side. The best way to win is to change how you approach your problems and deal with them and not just because it might be necessary, but because it will ultimately help you become more unpredictable.
When you're predictable, you put yourself at a huge disadvantage and when your enemies know exactly what to expect from you, they can also anticipate what will happen next and prepare accordingly. This makes them stronger than you are because they know that they can take advantage of you and they do it all the time!
But when they don't know what's coming next, they're actually at a disadvantage: They may not have time to react or come up with an appropriate response; or worse yet, their plans could fall apart due to unforeseen circumstances (like a sudden change in circumstances). This means that if your opponent does not know what's coming down the pipeline, if there's no way for him or her to prepare for it, then they won't be able to react well enough (or at all!)
Take for example someone that is working at a company and closes from work every day by 6pm and drives home immediately. He follows a particular road all the time and everyone knows the exact time he passes that road. Won't such a person be very easy to kidnap or rob? He is very predictable and anybody who is planning on attacking him can easily do so without much effort.
Now let's look at it the other way. This same person closes from work by 6pm but sometimes he stays behind and leaves one hour later, sometimes he leaves immediately and takes a different route home, sometimes he doesn't go home directly but visits a random park, some other times he gets to his house and drives off to somewhere else, sometimes he even sleeps in the office (I think you get the idea now).
Someone like that is very hard to predict and attacking him is much more difficult. Anybody that is planning on attacking him is going to depend purely on luck because they never know what to expect. Today they might plan to attack him on his way home and that might be the day he never leaves the office or goes somewhere else.
This is exactly why you have to be unpredictable and not just for security reasons, it also makes it harder for people to take advantage of you. People are watching closely enough to see what's coming next from you, you just have to make sure that what comes next is unpredictable enough for them not to know exactly how you are going to respond, so when we do respond, well, let's say that there's no way anyone can expect what happens next.
Aside from the security, sociological and psychological benefits that come with being unpredictable, it's actually very fun! I love seeing a confused look on people's faces when they realize I didn't react the way they thought I will. Most of the time I can tell that someone is doing something just to see if I will react the usual way I do but I switch things up and react the opposite way, it hurts a lot! Some of them even show their frustration 😆.
Conclusion
Achieving unpredictability is not as easy as it sounds. Not at all. It takes a strong amount of willpower and effort to constantly remind yourself not to be predictable, especially if you're already used to a certain way of doing things. But the rewards that come from this are worth it, for not only will you achieve more in less time, but your enemies won't be able to properly predict what you're about to do. If nothing else, this will throw them off to the point where they might hesitate just enough for you to gain the upper hand.
Thanks for reading 💖💖💖

I think I was telling a friend the other day that she shouldn't be too much addicted to going through the same route but should be unpredictable by switching routes many times.
I don't tell people of my travelling except for a few I have observed so much including my siblings. Life is unpredictable, you should too. Enemies plenty for outside.
