Quotes to ponder:

"It helps to raise the stakes by asking, 'How will this end in disaster?'"

"If we’re worried about money, we can establish an emergency fund."

"This exercise forces us to bring the real problems to the surface, and then get serious about preventing them from actually taking place."
