Murphy's Law: My Wake-Up Call

"Anything that can go wrong, will." 
Whenever things went wrong, I quoted Murphy.  Then one day, it quoted me back. Was I obsessed?
It was a chilly morning. I had a critical appointment with a city doctor.
I got in the car, turned the key. Engine dead.
Too early to call a mechanic.
I did the next best thing: hailed an auto-rickshaw to the station, caught a train, and reached the clinic on time. Relief!
The receptionist killed it: "Sorry. Doctor isn't coming today."
I felt dejected. Angry. Then the irony hit me.
One simple phone call to confirm the two-day old appointment would've saved everything.
So, are you letting Murphy's Law predict your failures or using it to prevent them?
