I forgot to include an old saying that applies to worrying: “Man plans, God laughs.”
You can make all the contengency plans and worry about possible outcomes all you want, but ultimately the world has a way of throwing surprises at us that are beyond our control. All we can do is be as prepared as possible to handle things that are foreseen and those that are unexpected. Excessive worry is like excessive fear – it feeds upon itself and results in inaction and paralysis. The Boy Scouts say “Be prepared” and by that, they mean “be prepared for anything.”
