I almost got a ticket the other day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I almost missed my stop \/exit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A car almost ran me down.<\/p>\n

I was walking along and it roared right by me. It was a close call.<\/p>\n

But you were on a sidewalk!<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes, but it was close.<\/p>\n

We tend to translate everyday possibilities to seem<\/em> like they are<\/strong> actually happening to us.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ok, so?<\/p>\n

Do you plan too much on what-if \/almost \/just-in-case?<\/p>\n

Ease off on your self \/project.<\/p>\n

And watch things speed up.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After all, what exactly happens when you miss the plane \/bus \/train, whatever?<\/p>\n

Nothing. You reschedule.<\/p>\n
