Process vs Chaos : Why Process is More Impactful in Long Run
Have you ever seen the fireworks in the sky? You will find that it randomly bursts out the colors and the energy into the sky and turns into dust. This is the chaos that we see in our life and universe in general every now and then.
Meanwhile we wake up, brush teeth, eat something, work on something and get to sleep. Do you notice a pattern? This is what is called the process. You do it slow and steady and predictable over long term. This is what runs the life and universe in general.

So let's discuss why Process is better than Chaos.
Chaos Has Impact but Short Term
Have you seen vilians in the movies or universe in general. They have a role to play in the world and you may find that they do very impactful thing in the world. They change the direction we think or do things. But they have lot of small term in existence.
Chaos is something people look up when the everyday routine of the process does not add up or change the result. So in turn the chaos is what people expect and that's why it's small term and only has limited impact. Whereas the process is everyday routine.
Process has lasting Rewards
Imagine you go to the gym once a week vs everyday. Which one would work? You would find that process of the daily gym going is what changes the life. Process works as it is long term. And also you would find that process is where the rewards also come in as you are following it long term.
You do something for specific amount of time and specific number of times every day or time has some sort of the effect and that works for long term. So the chaos can't give you that result.
Chaos is Change, Process is Stability
As much as chaos is un sustainable, the process requires some level of stability to continue. And chaos works small time and it brings about change which also affects the process. So the small thing that leads to the new process.
So the process in itself is not independent of the chaos. Yet the chaos is not in control for long term either. You may see that chaos is something that is required when something just doesn't work in the process.
Conclusion
Chaos is what world needs when they expect big change to the circumstances. And process is what need when the chaos and its effects are not helping the system sustain for long term.
What is your experience? Have you learned from chao and process?
