— Stephen King

Simplified Meaning:
It's okay to have positive expectations and look forward to good things happening. At the same time, you should also be ready for things to go wrong. Imagine you're planning an outdoor party. You hope for a sunny day, but you also make sure to have a plan in case it rains, like setting up a tent or having an indoor space ready. This way, you enjoy the anticipation and excitement, but you won't be caught off guard if the weather isn't perfect. In life, hoping for the best while preparing for the worst helps you stay optimistic but also practical, ensuring you're not left struggling if things don't go as planned. Doing this keeps your spirits up and your mind calm because you're ready for any outcome.
