In other words, the Universe is either: 1. Our Friend and wants to help us succeed and flourish. The Universe is fair, just, and predictable.
2. Our Enemy and wants to exploit us and steal our vital resources. The Universe lies, cheats, steals from us. It is contradictory and violent and unpredictable.
3. The Universe is Unconcerned about our presence in any significant way and behaves like a giant impersonal clockwork of such enormous complexity we can only occasionally predict future events.
In all cases, it is best to live in the present moment and make the best decisions you can based on your understanding of morality, justice, fairness, economic efficiency, truth, honor, and love. You will make mistakes, and then you just work to "correct them" as best you can.
If you constantly are focused on the future or the past, then you discount your present experience and you are not really alive or aware.
Focus on the present moment and the thing you have to do and let the Universe take care of itself.
You do not know with any certainty what the future will bring, while you are alive, when you die, or after your death. You never will know with any legal, scientific, or mathematical certainty what the future really brings, so concentrate on performing your best in the present time that you are certainly aware of and can actually predict to a reasonable degree.
