When faced with uncertainty, the first strategy that we use, almost instinctively, is to suppress it by replacing it with artificial certainty, easily contradicted by existing proof. The second strategy focused on learning to tolerate uncertainty, enters the stage as we realize that denying uncertainty would mean taking refuge in a lie. A third strategy is to identify coping methods that would help us to preserve our sense of meaning in life. The most daring strategy capitalizes on the motivation to use all means available to fight to overcome uncertainty.
