The Imperfect Shit Storm

If things start going wrong, it’s nice to think you’re the kind of guy that takes it on the chin and just keeps on trucking. We all want to be “that guy”. But “that guy” is actually a stupid fucker sometimes. Sometimes he’s the hero, but more than once a week he gets shat on.
If things start going really left wing, really fast, do NOT keep calm and carry on. At least, not every time. Give yourself a break. Consider this scenario:
Your alarm doesn’t go off, you run for the train, you miss it. You run for the bus, you miss it. You go to the cash point to get some cash, the ATM eats your card. You go to phone a cab but you’re out of credit. So you start the two hour walk to work.
WRONG.
My advice: Do not walk to work. Go home, write it off. You ain’t Clark Kent mate. Fuck. It. Off. Accept defeat and move on.
Word of warning: No word of warning this time, that is solid advice. Know when to cut it loose and swim for shore.
