I find it helps me to be more pragmatic and decisive, and stops me putting things off because i'm hesitant over a 'potential' bad outcome (that will most likely not happen).The funny side of it is that i got that quote from watching the Sopranos, although it originally came from Marcus Tullius Cicero.
