I think in [[Pattern|patterns]] and [[forces]]. I grew up in a culture where effort is everything. If something doesn't go well, that's because you didn't put in enough work. I don't deny we can change things to a certain extent. But in order to make real impact, you need to ride the waves. The waves are the patterns and forces you find in nature. They are the deciding factor. They decide how matter works. How our body works. How our brain works. How the dynamics between two people works. How the society works. How the world works. The laws and forces of nature work bottom-up.
