A funny thing happened on the way to the future...

"So let me make this suggestion.  Don't spend a lot of time imagining the worst case scenario.  It rarely goes down as you imagine it will, and if by some fluke it does, you will have lived it twice.  When things do go bad, don't run, don't hide.  It will take time, but you'll find that even the gravest problems are finite, and your choices are infinite." 

An excerpt from Michael J. Fox's new book.
