Uncertainty

Uncertainty means not knowing what will happen in the future. We can never be sure about what is going to happen, since there are so many different possibilities, and we don't always have enough information to tell what will happen. Uncertainty helps us be creative, because it means we get to think of all the possible outcomes of something and come up with solutions that might solve the problem.
