Success in Business is Mico Choices Over Time
To be successful in business you need to take a deep look at outcomes and how they come about. Realizing that these outcomes are never the result of a single choice or action but many small actions built up over a long period of time.
Think about how the hedge fund Bridgewater was built by Ray Dalio argubulary one of the best funds of all time. As chronicled in Principals they cover how micro improvements and changes can add up to a big success over time.
So remember when building a great company, life, or marriage that this is built up through many great micro choices over a period of time. Success is not a single choice based on one action but rather it is a series of actions over time.

Why We're So Bad At Predictions
This piece from Nassim Taleb explains why we're so bad at predicting the pandemic and the outcomes of total deaths.
Source: https://forecasters.org/wp-content/uploads/Talebetal_25062020.pdf
MAIN STATEMENTS from the piece:
(i)– Forecasting single variables in fat-tailed domains is in violation of both common sense and probability theory.
(ii)– Pandemics are extremely fat-tailed events, with potentially destructive tail risk. Any model ignoring this is necessarily flawed.
(iii)– Science is not about making single points predictions but about understanding properties (which can sometimesbe tested by single point estimates and predictions).
(iv)– Sound risk management is concerned with extremes, tails and their full properties, and not with averages, the bulk of a distribution or naive estimates.
(v)– Naive fortune-cookie evidentiary methods fail to work under both risk management and fat tails,because the absence of evidence can play a large role in the properties.
(vi)– There are feedback mechanisms between forecast and reaction that cancels the invalidity of some predictions.
(vii)– Exponential dynamics automatically satisfies the mathematical condition for chaos and its unpredictability

Richart Ruddie of Fort Lauderdale Florida Says this is 17.5x More Deadly than COVID-19
Cardiovascular diseases will be approximately 17.5 times more deadly than COVID-19. The big difference is that the ease in which you can catch COVID-19 and how rapidly it affects you and has the potential to activate other immunocompromised issues and kill you.
So it's not that COVID-19 is even nearly as deadly as other issues but it's more rapid. Only car accidents according to the chart above states that it's more deadly with little to no notice. So what do we do? Once COVID-19 is erradticated we should focus on curing cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and other lifestyle activities that cause these issues.
So don't be afraid because if you looked at the chart above you would think you're odds of dying are severly increased. Sometimes ignorance is bliss but make health conscious decisions to improve your lifestyle and logevity.
