Great perspective. It reminds me of another quote, "Don't panic, there will be plenty of time for that later." When faced with difficulties, I always try to just stop, take stock of the situation, then act. Panic only feed anxiety, and wastes energy you could be putting into fixing the problem. When something happens, don't get bogged down in why did this happen to me? Just breathe, get as much information as possible to make a good decision, and then do what you need to do to fix it. Things happen, you just have to respond to them. Only after the problem has been responded to is it actually helpful to take another look at the problem to see why it happened and what you can do to prevent it in the future.
