Markovian Life Decisions

Markovity
The principle has much gravity
In signals and systems
And life as we know it.

Markovity
To state it with brevity
Your future depends
Only on the present.

The past is irrelevant.
Where you can be tomorrow
Is decided by what you do about it today.
And mistakes made in the past can stay there.

Markovity
Lest this be seen as levity
Let me stress
I wish you no distress

Markovity
Acknowledges adversity.
History teaches
The optimal law to control success.

Don't regret
What is done is done.
Do it right today
And the best possible future shall be within reach.

NOTE :
Markovity is a principle which says  that the future state of the system depends only on the present state.
Let me tell it you like I see it.
Suppose life has been unkind to you so far and that everything you tried has failed. Say that the path to today has been a rocky one. Somehow stumbling across the ups and downs, a tired you has made it to here, to right now.
What drives you to go ahead? After all, you have only faced adversity. How are you supposed to believe that somehow tomorrow will be a better day magically?
Just make like a Markovian and play by its rules. Your past teaches, you are equipped to deal with the obstacles better and better. This is how you are in control - you have learnt the optimal control law to achieve success. Apply this law today and your future is the best possible one.
Irrelevant of the past, no matter how you got to today. Remember. Tomorrow is decided only by the actions you take today.

The pursuit of purpose.

Are we alone in the universe? Is there a greater intelligence than ours? Do we have a purpose? Why do we exist? Perhaps the Earth is a thought experiment, only that the computation is being done by the human mind. The search for the meaning of life is unique for each individual; while some of us do not prioritize it, others make a living out of it. But the need to know ‘why’ exists in almost every one of us. In my pursuit for purpose, I have taken different paths and I hope you will be happy to explore them with me. Humans have asked the ‘why’ of their existence for centuries, but they have not agreed upon an answer. Many great minds seem to believe in many different hypotheses. Nihilism says humans have no purpose. Creationists believe that a God created us, but they don’t know why he did that. No holy scripture sets out an ultimate goal for humanity. Religion offers subtle guidelines of how to search for purpose, but for the most of it, religion preaches about the greater good. It l...

Am I ready to become a mother?

No, I am not married nor in a committed relationship. No, I am not sexually active nor am I thinking of adoption. Today I am 26 years old and am wondering : am I ready to be a mother? I am thinking about this because there is a right time for everything and today is the right time to wonder about this particular phase of my life. Let me tell you a little more about myself. I am an engineer with a master's degree in control theory and am currently enrolled in a doctoral program. Being a student at this age is not fun. My friends have moved on in their lives and are successful in their jobs, are aspiring home-owners and parents. My family has just moved on and has stopped worrying about me, since I am a grown up. Financial independence means earning enough to cover rent and living in perpetual credit card debt. Add to that the onus of repaying student loans. My long distance relationship ended when my boyfriend did not long for me anymore and became distant. Times two. Getting a PhD ...
