If you live in LA or San Diego or some other "always-sunny" locale, I feel sorry for you because that kind of weather doesn't prepare you for real life. Shit happens and you should not only expect it, and plan for it, you should encourage it. If the sun is shining all the time, and nothing ever bad happens, you will fall into a rut and you will get complacent. For the Buckster, constant sunshine turned me into an alcoholic and a drug addict. Everything was so good that I could do (and overdo) anything I wanted and I DID…But it almost killed me. The rain finally came, it caught up with me, I cleaned up and had to reinvent myself and now I'm clean, sober, and more successful than I ever was on Wall Street.

Things will go to shit, it happens to everyone, but if you are smart and you're ready for it that shit could be the best thing that happens to you. It forces you to think, to pivot, and to figure out what you did wrong so you can make corrections. Enjoy the sunshine when it's shining, but know that it will come and go.
