In the lexicon of today's generation, the phrase "Let's see how it goes" has embedded itself deeply, shaping mindsets to passively await the unfolding of events, relegating individuals to the role of mere spectators in their own lives.
But your life is not a narrative unfolding on a screen, where you sit back and watch, detached from the action. You are not meant to be a passive observer, but rather the protagonist, the driving force behind the plotline of your existence.
To utter the words "Let's see how it goes" is to relinquish agency and surrender the reins of your destiny to chance and circumstance. It reflects an inability or unwillingness to seize control and take decisive action to shape your fate.
Consider relationships: uttering "Let's see how it goes" while dating may lead to waking up one day, realizing time has slipped away, leaving dreams of marriage and children unfulfilled.
In the realm of employment, adopting a passive stance with "Let's see how it goes" is akin to waiting for the opportunity to knock, rather than actively seeking it out, knocking on doors, and pursuing promising leads.

Even in the arena of business, the complacent refrain of "Let's see how it goes" signifies a reluctance to innovate, devise, and implement strategies that propel your enterprise forward instead of merely coasting along with the currents of chance.
Cease being a bystander in your own life. Accept the fact that, through your decisions and deeds, you are the creator of your future. Your life is a collaboration between your efforts and the divine providence of God.
So, stop waiting and start creating.
Take hold of the reins, chart your course, and make things happen. Your life is a canvas awaiting the brushstrokes of your intentions, so wield them boldly and paint the masterpiece that is uniquely yours.
