Know how to signal "SOS!" / by Alexander Lyadov

For a long time I made the mistake of thinking I had to solve my problems alone.

In essence, I was trying to defy the second law of thermodynamics, how naive!

The law states that in a closed, non-equilibrium system, entropy will inevitably increase.

Digging deeper only sank me further into the quagmire of dark thoughts.

Contradictions cannot be resolved within a system that gave rise to them.

Greek myths teach us that wandering in a labyrinth ends either in exhaustion or meeting the Minotaur.

Once life pushed me into a dead end so hard that I had to say new words: "I need help!"

But no one helped me right away - it turned out to be not a cry, but a whisper.

And only when I loudly and clearly signaled "SOS!" did kind and wise people enter my life.

The paradox is that in the end, I still solved all the problems myself.

But thanks to the support of other people, I was able to step outside of my system for the first time in my life and look at it from the outside.

I didn't understand it right away, but I was already a different person.

And then, my life began to improve - relationships, sports, education, hobbies, and of course, my business.

Yours sincerely,

-Alexander
