"Either you deal with what is the reality, or you can be sure that the reality is going to deal with you." Alex Haley
The real world is so distasteful at times. It just makes you want to go ostrich. We don't want to face something, so we pretend it doesn't exist. Someone tries to talk to us about it and we put our fingers in our ears and yell, "La la la la la, I can't hear you!" Yeah. Very mature. I have done that a few times, and in every case I only made matters worse for myself.
When you have a problem, attack it instead of allowing it to attack you. Face it early and with eyes wide open. Oh yes. It is ugly. It is not pleasant. But you need to see it for what it is, in order to develop a strategy for dealing with it.
You know what they say in football. The best defense is a good offense. So go after it. Now. Before it gets you.
