In times of crisis, whether due to situations involving a person, a company, a country or even the entire world, it is normal for people to feel a greater fear of uncertainty that even bad things can happen. As uncertainty is that feeling of insecurity, lack of confidence or certainty of what can happen. However, despite being a negative sentiment, it can be used to avoid a favor and take advantage, so this article will show 5 benefits of uncertainty.

Allows you to get out of the comfort zone
In many cases we get used to leading a routine life, we settle for what we have because “we feel comfortable”, without having to aspire to anything else because we feel that we have everything we need to be happy, even if this is a false feeling. When the general panorama changes and a situation is created that distorts this security, anxiety is generated in the face of changes, but this is an excellent opportunity to take risks in the face of new ventures and the possibility of obtaining greater and better benefits than you were used to.
Better preparation
Although we are not capable of being prepared for everything, it allows us to establish better future plans, in the case of companies, for example, they can define strategies in the event of cyberattacks, loss of information, the need to telework, massive shortages of workers sick, anyway, it does not mean that you always think negatively, it only establishes a “plan b” in the event that possible situations arise that generate a certain level of chaos.
You live in the present
Although the previous point mentions the need to prepare for unexpected situations, uncertainty also allows us to live in the present. Anticipating an uncertain future generates great anxiety and cannot be controlled by not knowing what may happen tomorrow. This is why it is important to learn to live each day and enjoy it, without worrying excessively about future problems that are not even certain that they will happen.
New opportunities are perceived
Not having the security, for example, of a fixed income, people look for new opportunities to grow and generate additional income from the money. In companies, the same happens, when observing the fluctuations of the market and losing the known stability, new strategies and niches begin to be considered that attack to allow growth and other business opportunities.
It allows you to make decisions faster
Many times by thinking too many things, great business opportunities are lost. Being in a situation of uncertainty, people are forced to make decisions more quickly, accurately and concisely, since they have to act quickly, but considering the pros and cons of the overall picture, so we can document ourselves more appropriately without taking that long.
