Notice the Mack Truck …

This was something taught to me some thirty years ago - we know the path we are on, isn’t the optimal one when we get smashed by a ‘Mack Truck’. A ‘Mack Truck’ is a ‘bad life event’ - and when we get smacked by one, we need to sit up and take notice. If we keep getting smashed by ‘Mack Trucks’ - this is a clear indicator that we may be on the wrong path. 

Sometimes we get a small smack upside of the head - other times we are hit by a vespa - but when the ‘Mack Truck’ hits - if we survive, we should most definitely change course.
