: Alas, that's gotten my into trouble a lot, with family, friends, the community, and in workplaces.
@Agatha: Heck, most of things don't require planning for the worst, provided they've paid any attention to what they're doing and their environs and other pretty mundane factors. The problem is that they don't. They merely center in on what they wish/wish, put on their blinders, and operate ready only to insist that "it's gonna happen", much like that "manifesting" bollocks.
